Yes, this has made a difference. Thank you. I ran against a local user, although they were not a local administrator. It ran fine: portapps@*********** ~ $ /usr/sbin/sftp-server -h usage: sftp-server [-ehR] [-f log_facility] [-l log_level] [-u umask] I guess that points towards a pseudo terminal handling glitch for a domain user, right?
