Setting up Dolphin to use sftp folder...SSH issues?
I am trying to get dolphin to connect to a remote server using sftp protocol with ssh. When I type in the server info into Dolphin for a remote server it does not even seem to try and connect before giving me an error message saying it could not connect to the server and to check my settings. I have connected this way with other apps and had no issue. I think ssh is stopping it for some reason so it cannot even try to connect.
I am really new to ssh and do not know what to do or where to start. I know my system has ssh as well as sshguard...
Any suggestions?
I guess it is "KNetAttach" that technically launches..
I am able to connect to the server using Bluefish which is what I am using as an html editor, and it works well for downloading and uploading just not managing. I also tried the nautilus and it is ok, but I would rather not have to launch a whole nother file manager in order to connect. I really wanted it right in Dolphin but for some reason it will not connect and seems that it is not even attempting...
I also tried typing the server using fish into the editable location bar, at one point I got a request for credentials but now it wont connect at all, it just says loading folder constantly...
Ok so I have been able to connect and use Filezilla as well as FireFTP in Firefox and Nautilus, but everytime I try to use fish for ssh I cant get it to connect. It seems to be getting humg up....e.g. fish://whatever.adress.me, when ever I try to use any other extension it does not work. In Dolphin the sftp brings up an error, fish just gets hung, and http opens a browser...
I got the KNetAttach to try and connect when ever I would switch out the sftp setting for fish, but it never actually connects it just attempts over and over again....
Am I missing some component?
