I'm willing to bet that it's "Received message too long". There are a few
things that can cause this:
- shell is unusual
- protocol mismatch
- .profile putting out messages before signon is complete (this should
only be done on interactive logons).
Go to

ewwindow=1&sa=n&oq=sftp+received+message+too+lnog
The message wrapped, but go to google and enter "sftp received message too
long" and you'll see a few suggestions on things to try.
