Thanks for the feedback! WinSCP works with SFTP. I can successfully transfer files from my Windows pc to my Linux/OpenVZ VPS. Excellent!

Here is what happens with Filezilla, using Servertype of SFTP using SSH2. I have logonsuccess = HOST PID in /etc/xinetd.conf. I do see a new entry written to /var/log/syslog when Filezilla starts of START: ssh pid=15663 from=76.165.209. And ps aux shows a second instance of dropbear -i (in addition to the instance for Putty). And usr/lib/sftp-server is now shown to also be running.

But when I start a file transfer within Filezilla, another new entry is written to the /etc/log/syslog of START: ssh pid=3946 from=76.165.209, and doing ps aux now shows another, third instance of dropbear -i and a new, second instance of usr/lib/sftp-server.

I guess I’ll stick with WinSCP.
