I have a laptop running SUSE 9.1 and a desktop with Arch Linux 0.6. I want to transfer a bunch of files from the desktop to the laptop. I have made sure the sshd daemon is running on both boxes and both boxes can ping each other (connected through a Netgear router). However, when I open Konq on the laptop and type 'fish://username@XXX.XXX.X.X' on the laptop, I get an error message saying 'Could not connect to host at XXX.XXX.X.X (IP of the desktop machine. How can I fix this?

Are you running a firewall? You may not have masquerading setup properly, or a problem with allowing http access. -- Jim Sabatke Hire Me!! - See my resume at http://my.execpc.com/~jsabatke Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for you are crunchy and good with ketchup.

1) I've never heard of a fish: protocol.... (but that shows how much I know) 2) I just tried it on two machines I have here, and it doesn't connect either. 3) But: go to a terminal session and type: ssh xx.xxx.xx.xx and it works fine. (or use SCP) Not sure whether it's supposed to work or not. -- +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ + Bruce S.

Fish is the ssh support directly in konqueror... It works on my laptop (9.1 to 9.1) and to another server (9.1 to 9.0).... did you try ssh in the command line? Jerry On Sun, 2004-05-30 at 20:26, Bruce Marshall wrote:

It also works on 8.2 to 9.0, fyi. Mike

fish:// is new to me too. When I entered "fish://user@hostname" in Konq, I got a prompt for a password. Then I got an error that "Cervisia does not support remote repositories." I guess this isn't completely implemented yet.

Got it working now. Just had to change the hosts.allow file on the desktop (added 'sshd: ALL'). Now it works like a champ. Pretty darn cool, too for moving files between PCs. -- Cheers, Trey --- At a given moment I open my eyes and exist. And before that, during all eternity, what was there?

Well I'll be! That is cool! I was able to look at the filesystem on my laptop from my workstation and vice versa. SuSE 9.1 on the workstation, RedHat 9 on the laptop. Never heard of this before. How does one learn about this? I did "man cervisia" and "rpm -qa | grep cervisia" and didn't get any hits. With YaST I was able to find reference to cervisia in kdesdk3 which I don't even have installed. The SuSE HElp Center mentions it in passing but doesn't explain it at all. -- Robert C.

I had some screwy problems with getting fish:/ working as well. I tracked it down to having to have the remote host be a "known host" to the local box's ssh. Did that by using ssh from a console first. As far as I know, fish has nothing to do with cervisa, it is just a (awesome) front-end for ssh. Regards, Mark

OK, I was thinking it was part of something larger. In any case, it *is* an awesome frontend to ssh. -- Robert C. Paulsen, Jr. robert@paulsenonline.net

The protocol appears to be exactly the same as using the following in konq sftp://whoever@whatever/some-dir/ If you type the above in on a new computer it acts the same as using ssh, asking the same questions. -- Regards, Graham Smith ---------------------------------------------------------

http://docs.kde.org/en/3.2/kdebase/kioslave/fish.html says fish:/ makes use of actual shell commands on the remote host which may mean it can work even when "sftp" support on the server is disabled.

It does. I use fish to access Solaris filesystems over ssh, and they sure don't have sftp on them. -- Steve Boddy
