sftp server --> authenticate against MySQL?

Right now I use PureFTPD for conventional FTP server purposes. I have
it authenticating against a username/password table in the DB.

I'd like to do the same exact thing but with an sftp server instead.
I haven't found anything yet since the selection of sftp servers is
small compared to vanilla ftp.

Anybody know of a product?

Thanks,
Brian

Well, considering the last exploit, OpenSSH appears to support PAM, so
if you add http://sourceforge.net/projects/pam-mysql/ you should end up
with the exact product you are looking for...

Although this sentence on their homepage...

"Now configurable in terms of which host the database reside upon, which
table and username and password column to interrogate."

....seems to indicate they have a strange priority set. ;-)

X.
