When I run sftp, I get no output whatsoever, not even an error message. How do i diagnose this? hp-ux 11.31

Newer than mine, so I know nothing, but...

For how long? True for all servers, or only "xxx.xxx.xx.xx"? Forall users? (Is "xxx.xxx.xx.xx" an IP address?)
truss /opt/ssh/bin/sftp -vvv xxx.xxx.xx.xx

True for all users, for all target computers.
I have copied sshd_config and ssh_config from another machine, restarted ssh to no avail.

Sometimes I get this in reply:
Connection closed

Still wondering.

You really tried _all_ possible target computers? How many was
that?

Why? Were they different? I would not expect "sshd*" to affectgreatly a _client_ problem.

Which means what, exactly? As usual, showing actual commands with
their actual output can be more helpful than vague descriptions orinterpretations.

Can you communicate with "xxx.xxx.xx.xx" (whatever that is) in anyother way (FTP, ssh, Telnet, ...)?

The problem was that the ssh file was set to 0 in size. Strange. I copied a working ssh file and all is working.
Also there were multiple versions of ssh on the system, but apparently the necessary one was null in size.
