Hi Damien,

Respectfully, I understand what you are saying but I'm not seeing it in 
practice.  I put the path to all the new SSH binaries in the very front 
of my PATH as such:

setenv PATH /usr/local/openssh.new/bin:/rest/of/path

% which ssh
/usr/local/openssh.new/bin/ssh

% which sftp
/usr/local/openssh.new/bin/sftp

and still I get the same error when I try to sftp anywhere...

ciao, erich
