try: sftp -s /usr/local/libexec/sftp-server user@hostname

note: assume sftp-server is located in /usr/local/libexec directory
and on unix server.
      checks - /usr/local/libexec is world accessable
              /usr/local/libexec/sftp-server is world executable
      create a symbolic links for sftp-server either in /usr/bin or
/usr/local/bin to point to /usr/local/libexec/sftp-server
      also, put /usr/local/libexec in the search path

hope this help.
