Hi all - I just updated to KDE3.4 - using yast and the supplementary dirs and I noticed that there seems to be some problems with the sftp protocol handling in KDE. When I try to open sftp://me@at.my.work in konqueror it says try connecting to... but nothing happens. First I thought maybe my connection is down, but sftp worked on the shell and I got immediately an connection. Then I thought maybe there are some config files to be updated, so it takes longer te first time, so I made my breakfast, read something, 15 minutes later nothing had happened, icon still spinning - no connection, no error message. Using Kontact I had apparently an unstable connection. Here I use sftp to get my korganiser calendar when I'm at home. Sometimes it worked, but more often it did not. Did anyone had similar problems? Maybe I need to update some packages outside KDE? I'm running SuSE 9.1 Pro/x86_64, kde network packages are 3.4.0-07 apart from lisa which is 3.4.0-05 Help is appreciated gl -- Günter Lichtenberg ========>mailto:lichten@sron.nl SRON (EOS) Sorbonnelaan 2 3584 CA UTRECHT the Netherlands Tel.: +31 30 253 5719 FAX : +31 30 254 0860
Is there anything wrong with fish://me@work ? I would see fish:// as successor of sftp:// when it comes to graphical usage in konqueror. Best, Daniel

Hi - not as such, but company policy is that I connect to a ssh server outside the firewall. When I do this to log into my work machine, I first get to the ssh machine and then have to give the name of the machine in the companies net into I want to log in. So there is an additional, interactive step necessary, which cannot be handled by KDE In order to transfer files I have to use sftp.

Some more information: The process seems to hang after password check: I mistyped my password and I was asked if I want to retry, which I did and then same result as previously. I plugged in my laptop and I can do a fish:// connection to it but not a sftp://. And now comes the funny thing: On my laptop everything works. The difference are - I used for the update SuSE 9.*2* rpms for i386 (don't ask me why) - that it is a 32bit machine. - openssh-askpass-3.8p1-askpass minor versions are different (no idea if that has anything to do with it): laptop: openssh-askpass-3.8p1-33 PC : openssh-askpass-3.8p1-27 So it seems to be either a SuSE 9.1 problem or a x86_64 problem (or something completely different!). I think I try to install the proper 9.1 on my laptop and see what's happening... gl -- Günter Lichtenberg ========>mailto:lichten@sron.nl SRON (EOS) Sorbonnelaan 2 3584 CA UTRECHT the Netherlands Tel.: +31 30 253 5719 FAX : +31 30 254 0860

Did that and it works also with the 9.1 i386 packages on the laptop, so it is maybe something with the x86_64 packages. Anyway, Daniel provided me with a solution... gl -- Günter Lichtenberg ========>mailto:lichten@sron.nl SRON (EOS) Sorbonnelaan 2 3584 CA UTRECHT the Netherlands Tel.: +31 30 253 5719 FAX : +31 30 254 0860
Okay.... So you have your home pc, a gateway at work running ssh and the work pc behind. What about that: ssh user@gateway -L 2022:workmachine:22 after that: fish://user@localhost:2022 where user has to be the valid user of your work pc. Does this sound good to you?
