I would like to reorganize the files of the download
area of my project (also to save your disk space), but
there seems to be no way to use sftp. The command I use is

sftp -1 address@hidden:/epsilon/
and the only answer I get is
Connecting to freesoftware.fsf.org...
You tried to execute: `/usr/local/bin/cvssh -c
/usr/local/libexec/sftp-server'.
Sorry, you are only allowed to execute : 
CVS_RSH=ssh cvs commands
rsync from /cvsroot or /upload.
rsync to /upload.
sftp to and from /upload.
Connection closed
The connection was from GNU/Linux x86, OpenSSH_2.9p2

The problem seems to be exactly the same also when I
connect from different machines than mine, with
different versions of SSH.

Thanks in advance
