[scponly] Troubles with scponly-4.8

[Gary Autiello]

Kaleb,

My apologies but I did forget to add the extra switch as you suggested in
the strace command.  Please see the attached logs:

Gary,

I'm not seeing any logging requests from the sftp-client.  Are you
using the latest sftp-client from your new 64-bit install or the older
one that you copied over?  You'll want to make sure you're using the
latest sftp-server which supports the extra logging features.

If so, please add a '-s 1024' to the strace command line and resend.

although it could serve as a good template for the files that are
necessary. If you create the symlink between the lib and lib64 directories,
cplibdeps should safely update the libraries.

Within standard syslog, you can do this with the '-a /path/to/dev/log'
option.  With syslog-ng you can create another source with that as the
path. In general, exactly how varies based on your syslog daemon.
