I did get an ALARM for successful access of SSH2.DIR in SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSMGR]
but when I put the SET WATCH FILE/CLASS=ALL in the look, I simply searched
for the FID of the AUTHORIZATION. file. It didn't show up in the log, so I
again reported that it was never accessed.  I'm not sure why there'd need to
be an SSH2.DIR in SYS$COMMON:[SYSMGR] but that was the workaround to get over
the hump.

There's apparently an undocumented logical name too to keep the sftp session
alive.

The customer now wants me implement thisonSaturday morning.  Grrr.  I wanted 
to goto Pine Island, NY to fly.
