RTM, thanks for the response...
When i SSH into the first computer, it works fine.
within the ssh session of the first computer i try to ssh computer2 and i get that error.

But i just found out it work by one command...

ssh -t firstcomputer ssh secondcomputer

or even


ssh - firstcomputer sftp secondcomputer

My setup is like this:
first computer is connected to the internet directry.
Second computer is on the internal LAN.

That's why i'm trying to figure out a way to ssh or sftp into the second computer on the LAN. is there an easier way?
thanks

sftp-server

sftp-server(1M) 					  System Administration Commands					   sftp-server(1M)

NAME

       sftp-server - SFTP server subsystem

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server

DESCRIPTION

       sftp-server implements the server side of the SSH File Transfer Protocol as defined in the IETF draft-ietf-secsh-filexfer.

       sftp-server is a subsystem for sshd(1M) and must not be run directly. There are no options or config settings.

       To enable the sftp-server subsystem for sshd add the following to /etc/ssh/sshd_config:

       Subsystem   sftp     /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server

       See sshd_config(4) for a description of the format and contents of that file.

       There is no relationship between the protocol used by sftp-server and the FTP protocol (RFC 959) provided by in.ftpd.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0	Successful completion.

       >0	An error occurred.

FILES

       /usr/lib/sftp-server
