Hi David,

I don't know the answer to your question but I had an "interesting" run 
last year as well. I couldn't distill from your message whether or not 
you got things to work, perhaps my ramblings will save some further 
frustration if you didn't.

The android apps I tried all used a Java library for the actual syncing 
etc, which I only got working after adding this to my "global" sshd config:

ChallengeResponseAuthentication yes

Without it, all auths (by all apps I tried) resulted in:

# sshd[14279]: error: Received disconnect from X.X.X.X port 35190:3: 
com.jcraft.jsch.JSchException: Auth fail [preauth]

My global PasswordAuthentication setting is set to "no".

I also added:

Ciphers aes256-ctr,aes192-ctr,aes128-ctr

to my configuration around that time, can't remember if that was an 
actual attempt to allow apps authenticating against OpenSSH or not.

My individual android devices all have a "match" block:

Match User test123
   ChrootDirectory %h
   ForceCommand internal-sftp
   AllowTcpForwarding no
   PermitTunnel no
   PasswordAuthentication yes

This combination works for all apps i've tried since.

Kind Regards,

Ruben
