Hi,

I just found this article on using konqueror to connect to a remote site via
sftp. It beats trying to remember the file paths on a remote system when
using scp. Also it is fast.

Using Konqueror with ssh to Manage files on a remote host.
"If you have ssh running on a remote host which you need to access, you can
dramatically reduce the amount of typing you have to do to manage files by
using Konqueror. To access a remote host in this manner, use "sftp://"; in the
Location Toolbar. Then put your username followed by the @ character and the
hostname. Here's an example: sftp://willy@xxxxxxxxxxxx/home/willy";
