Unix Admin: FTP SFTP SSH FTPS
A comment says there are not private keys. Let's try, anyway. ... Add connection, sftp type... On the line that says "login/password", press and select "public/private key". But you have to enter the path to the key, so I don't know how to generate and add that file. Same problem as on TurboFTP. And no documentation.
I defined an ssh terminal to my laptop here, on the local LAN. I see the connection on the laptop firewall log. Which is very confusing, because on the tablet I get a terminal that doesn't respond. Ah, I see, the password has to be stored in the configuration. If empty, it doesn't ask for it. Now I do get a working terminal. I add an sftp connection to the same laptop, succeeds. I can see some directories, but gives an error on connecting to my own home. Invalid descendent file name, I think. On tap a file it attempts to open it (and fails because it is too big). I see no option to download. It does not seem that UnixAdmin is a valid tool for downloading files. ** Trying again Total Commander ** I define a local LAN connection to my laptop, and tell it to download a file of 600MB. I see gkrellm on the laptop that it is going at 810K/S!! At this rate it is going to take ages. I fear I will abandon this project. At speeds that low it is not worth it. [...] Even worse! On download end, several (many) minutes later, it insisted on displaying the file. I said "open with total commander". It played the file, which happened to be a video. I exited the viewer, which returned to TC, which immediately said that it was deleting the temporary file! Then, there is no way to just download a file using sftp. Besides being terribly slow, it enforces "open". Try with a small file. Options (long tap) are: Rename Delete Download+Open with Download+Edit Properties Copy to clipboard Cut to clipboard. Well, copy to clipboard... then paste on the destination directory. That does a copy. How awkward... -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" (Minas Tirith))
