Dear List,

This is a question for KDE gurus..

I am using sessions with kate, where each session has several remote files on a server.

In my university, however, the things are configured in such a way that several instantaneous sftp connections to a server are interpreter as a denial-of-service attack. :/

So every time I open a session with several remote files, kate (or kde, to be more exact) tries to access all of them using sftp at the same time and my ip gets blocked.

Is there a way to configure kde in general, in such a way that it would access the remote files one after another? .. maybe not?

I know that it is not exactly what you are asking for, but what about using sshfs. You will probably need -s option to disable multi-threading (AFAIU then it will use only one connection to sshd).

Hi Peter,

Hi,

.. and thanks for your reply.

But how do I pass this information to KDE ..?

Sshfs [*] does nothing to do with KDE. You can use it to mount remote filesystem accessible via ssh as your local filesystem and access the files as if they were on your local machine. This is transparent to KDE. http://fuse.sourceforge.net/sshfs.html So you can mount the remote filesystem (where the files you want to open with kate are) and then access it 'localy'. [*] zypper install sshfs

I mean, I am in kate, and from file => open => network folders => .. I will open a file that is behind an ssh connection (fish://username@server:22/directory/file) In the end I have several remote files open and I save the session.

You will just point kate to the directory where you have mounted the remote filesystem.

Next time when I open the session, kate (or kde) tries to open all the remote files simultaneously.. thats the problem.

Is it some config file I should put that "-s" option.. ?

sshfs -s should cause that it will not open more than one connection to sshd (this is what you are trying to achieve). I hope I was more clear now :) -- Best regards / s pozdravem Petr Uzel, Packages maintainer --------------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX, s.r.o. e-mail: puzel@suse.cz Lihovarská 1060/12 tel: +420 284 028 964 190 00 Prague 9 fax: +420 284 028 951 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
