	    <p>Determines which module to call for accessing
	    the file server. The default value is <c>ssh_sftpd_file</c>, which uses the
	    <seealso marker="kernel:file">file</seealso> and <seealso marker="stdlib:filelib">filelib</seealso>
	    APIs to access the standard OTP file server. This option can be used to plug in

	  <tag><c><![CDATA[{max_files, Integer}]]></c></tag>
	  <item>
	    <p>The default value is <c>0</c>, which means that there is no upper limit.
	    If supplied, the number of filenames returned to the SFTP client per <c>READDIR</c>
	    request is limited to at most the given value.</p>

	  <item>
	    <p>Sets the SFTP root directory. Then the user cannot see any files
	    above this root. If, for example, the root directory is set to <c>/tmp</c>,
	    then the user sees this directory as <c>/</c>. If the user then writes
	    <c>cd /etc</c>, the user moves to <c>/tmp/etc</c>.
