Thuis just left the problemI'd originally started with which was the old leap distro whould not connect via sftp. The same problem happened here but the fix actually worked by adding Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server to the sshd_config file created above. I think it also needs a manual connection via the command line just to complete the final key copy with 'sftp root@desktop' and then 'sftp lester@desktop' just worked as well. |
