i see this issue in 10.04 LTS. I am trying to login to a yahoo webhosting account. nautilus says "the file is not a directory" because the root of the sever is inaccessible. The ubuntu client should go to the home directory, just like every other FTP client does.
all the bugs seemed to be marked as fixed, but they aren't. who dropped the ball? where should new info go? should we open a new bug? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290703 Title: ssh connection should open the user directory by default Status in GVFS: Fix Released Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts: Fix Released Status in Nautilus: Invalid Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: One can connect to SFTP server via creating SFTP bookmark in "Connect to server..." menu.
