sftp-server on a Networked Media Tank?

Hi,

At home, I have a Networked Media Tank, which can be used to view movies but
also is running Linux. Therefore, DropBear runs on this device and I
installed it using a installer made by the community on
www.networkedmediatank.com (
http://www.networkedmediatank.com/showthread.php?tid=13161&page=1).

I would love to add the sftp-server from OpenSSH to my DropBear
installation. I downloaded a Debian openssh-server package for mipsel and
extracted the sftp-server executable (
http://packages.debian.org/sid/mipsel/openssh-server/download). To test, I
tried to execute sftp-server, but after './sftp-server' I got the message:
-sh: sftp-server: not found
It seems this message is produced by sftp-server, as the program for sure
resides in that directory.

Now, I don't know how to continue. I already tried to put sftp-server in the
/share/Apps/DropBear/bin directory, where also dbclient and scp reside. In
my installation, a dropbear.sh exists to start the daemon and I added a line
(ln -s ${DBPATH}/bin/sftp-server /usr/lib/sftp-server) inside that script
like there are entries dor scp and dbclient.

In another e-mail on this list, I saw I had to edit options.h. However, I do
not have that file.

Can someone help me getting sftp working? It would make me very happy :-).
Thanks, Ernst
