     SFTPFS(4)                                               SFTPFS(4)

     NAME
          sftpfs - SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) file system

     SYNOPSIS
          sftpfs [ -12DU ] [ -m mntpt ] [ -p srvpath ] [ -s svc ] [ -u
          passwd group ] [user@]host

     DESCRIPTION
          Sftpfs connects to the SFTP subsystem of the SSH server at
          host, and presents the root file tree of host at mntpt. The
          default mount point is /n/host.

          If the -s option is given, the file system is posted as
          /srv/svc.  It will try to login as user, if given.  Other-
          wise, login is attempted using the user name from /dev/user.
          Authentication is entirely the reponsibility of the SSH
          client.

          The -1 -2 flags specify the SSH version used for the connec-
          tion.  Serverpath (default /usr/lib/sftp-server) specifies
          the remote path of the SFTP server used in version 1.  A
          path without slash character is looked up in the executable
          search path.  Some common places for SFTP server to live
          are:

               /usr/lib/sftp-server
               /usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server
               /usr/lib/misc/sftp-server
               /usr/libexec/sftp-server
               /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server

          Passwd and group specifies path to the Unix password and
          group files, to be used for UID/GID to name translation.
          The paths are interpreted after the file system is mounted,
          so paths starting with mntpt are acceptable. The -U option
          uses mntpt/etc/passwd and mntpt/etc/group as the Unix pass-
          word and group file. It overrides the -u flag.

          The -D flag causes a transcript of the 9P conversation to be
          written to standard error.
