sftp problem with user id of no telnet session allowed
We used to have a ftp user id with no telnet session allowed in server side.
We used this ftp user id in script by transferring file from client to Server.
Currently we need to implement sftp to replace ftp.
We have tested few round and working fine by using sftp with normal user id (allow telnet session).
However, when we use the ftp user id with no telnet session, the ftp straight away give the followng message "Connection Closed".
When we ssh'ing, the message is as follow :
/usr/bin/notelnet: Exec format error
Connection to xxx.yyy.zzz.com closed.
(which is correct, but the user id not allow telnet)
When we sftp, the message is as follow :
$ sftp <userid>@xxx.yyy.zzz.com
Connecting to xxx.yyy.zzz.com ...
Password:
Connection closed
I wonder if there are any setup required for ftp user id with no telnet session can execute sftp command.
Thanks.

ftp
ftp(4) File Formats ftp(4)
NAME
ftp - FTP client configuration file
SYNOPSIS
/etc/default/ftp
DESCRIPTION
Use the ftp file to configure the behavior of the FTP client. Lines that begin with a hash symbol ("# ") are treated as comment lines and
are ignored.
Behavior Directives
The ftp file supports the following behavior directives:
FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST=yes | no The ls command of the ftp client sends an NLST to the FTP Server by default. Several non-Solaris clients send
LIST instead. In order to make the Solaris ftp client send LIST when the ls command is issued, set
FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST to no. The value of FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST is yes by default.
If the user sets a value for FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST in the user's environment, this value will override any FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST directive that is
specified in /etc/default/ftp.
