Hello,
Recent Knoppix versions (up to 2003-05-20) seem to have broken sftp access in Konqueror. Users should be able to enter a URL in Konqueror like:
sftp://user@sftp.example.com
and have a nice Konqueror gui experience. Instead, after Konqueror prompts to accept the ssh server public key, it stalls a minute, then pops an error message:
Unexpected SFTP error message: 2 -
Error encountered while talking to ssh
I have tested that this functionality works in Knoppix versions as late as 2003-03-30. Note: command line ssh/sftp still works fine on all versions.
A very similar problem was previously posted (but never replied to) at:
http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2041
Any ideas on workarounds or fixes?
Thanks,
CubeDweller
