New Around Here
I recently found that sftp-server fails to listen for requests (after installing dropbear and openssh-sftp-server).

The reason for this seems to be that dropbear's executable points to sftp-server in /usr/libexec.

While there's probably a more correct fix, a symbolic link is serving as my (rudimentary) workaround:
Code:
mkdir /usr/libexec
ln -s /opt/libexec/sftp-server /usr/libexec/sftp-server
