How to force konqueror to log out of an sftp session
I use konqueror to ftp into my website to update files, etc and it works very well. In an effort to improve security, I tried using sftp which worked fine too, except that it never seems to log off. With ftp, I could kill the konqueror session and, when I reopened it later I would get a prompt to enter user and password. Using sftp, if I reopen the session it is already logged in. This is even after 24 hours of inactivity. Is there any way to log out of the sftp session?

Do you have SSH keys set up? What happens when you SSH into the server?
|
When I ssh in I get a standard "welcome to" and a command prompt.
|
Do you have to provide your password to log in? If you do, then you don't have ssh keys set up (unless they require a passphrase).
The next step is to see if your password is stored in kwallet: if it is, then you can just delete it. |
I do have ssh keys set up and don't have to provide a login to ssh. OK, so does that mean that sftp won't require a login, because it's working off the ssh keys? I'm starting to see the light...

Yes, that will be it: your SSH keys are being used to log in.

Thanks, sysfce2.
