Logging in OpenSSH chroot jails will work properly in version 5.2
In February of this year the ability to easily chroot accounts in OpenSSH moved from a maintained but unofficial patch to a properly supported part of the main branch. Except when using internal-sftp DEBUG logging didn’t seem to work properly, a problem that seems to have popped up on numerous mailing lists and message boards since chroot became "official" in February.
Thankfully a patch to bug report 1527 fixes this, and it will be part of 5.2 when it is released. Hopefully with it we’ll have chroot with detailed logging, making the building of highly audited chroot jailed SFTP servers a less painful process than it currently is.
