Hello:
I use openSUSE 12.2 with KDE 3.5.10. I am testing different KDE3 ftp clients, KFTP, KFTPGrabber, KuFTP. None of them let me paste the password for ftp login in their connections windows, which makes me think that this is a KDE3, not an applications 'issue'. As the password I have to type is something like "a8shgeyrtsd84befc" typing it in is not a solution. How can I enable pasting of passwords? This restriction is ridicolous. I don't want to use KDE password manager (KDE wallet?).
Thanks,

Istvan, As others have mentioned, konqueror (through its kio-slaves) provides an excellent ftp ...and... sftp client. It's not documented very well, but you can reach any ftp (or sftp) site by typing the following in the address bar: sftp://user:pass@domain.tld:port/path/to/the/file/your/want.txt If you have configured passwordless logon by creating host/key pairs, you can omit the user:pass information. If you have added the Host/Port pairs in ~/.ssh/config, then you can eliminate the port information as well. Which leaves you: sftp://domain.tld/path/to/the/file/your/want.txt This same scheme for url entry work in all KDE apps, like Kate, Kwrite, etc.. For example, if you are working on a remote web-site, you can open all the remote files up in Kate using this url scheme and directly edit the files on the remote site. Very handy. -- David C.
