openssh unix dev - Apr 2002 - scp/sftp user failures on HP-UX

Hi,

I have an HP server with OpenSSH 3.1p1, on which the scp and sftp are 
giving strange failures. For example: scp, ssh and sftp works fine only for 
the root user. But for a normal user account only the ssh part works, the 
scp and sftp fails to connect.

I am running UX 11i.

Any help wil be appreciated.

what are the "strange failures"?  a guess is a permission problem, but
need more data.
