[Bug 290703] Re: ssh connection should open the user directory by default
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 Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290703 Title: ssh connection should open the user directory by default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gvfs/+bug/290703/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

@Mike Levine: that a bug is fixed doesn't mean it will be fixed in your current app. New features and regular bugfixes will appear in future versions of a package.

[Bug 290703] Re: ssh connection should open the user directory by default
This seems like a reasonable paper cut. Using Nautilus for FTP or SFTP is a fairly common workflow for transferring files. Sure, most users are not affected, but I know quite a few average users who use FTP for basic tasks like updating personal/small business web sites, and making it so that they do not have to navigate to ~ is a huge improvement. ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: Invalid = Fix Committed -- ssh connection should open the user directory by default https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290703 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 290703] Re: ssh connection should open the user directory by default
Does the upsteam contain fix for Nautilus also? Upstream bug mentioned something that special support for Nautilus must be implemented.

[Bug 290703] Re: ssh connection should open the user directory by default
Patrick I see your viewpoint, but there is little more depth in this issue. As far as I know SFTP is recommended by Ubuntu as a secure method to put files to the server. It is very visible in the default setup of the system. Alternatives like FTP and WebDAV surely aren't better... so it is basically drawing a like what's Average Joe and what's not - I see remote copying of files as normal task which you might encounter in your studies and at least in your company work. But this indeed does not matter. Hints how to solve this bug SFTP and GVFS are welcome. If it's just few simple lines I could probably patch it together. -- ssh connection should open the user directory by default https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290703 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 290703] Re: ssh connection should open the user directory by default
Actually the bug is not as simple as you might think. It would be trivial to fix Nautilus/GVFS to map the URL sftp://mi...@something.com to sftp://mi...@something.com/home/mikko. However this violates the URI specification RFC r3986 as discussed in the upstream https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=561998 sftp://mi...@something.com should be same as sftp://mi...@something.com/ which is effective the server root folder. Command-line SFTP does not respect URI specification in the first place. The suggested fix was to have sftp://mi...@something.com to do a SFTP specific redirect to sftp://mi...@something.com/home/mikko. -- ssh connection should open the user directory by default https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290703 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 290703] Re: ssh connection should open the user directory by default
It's probably a simple fix, but at the same time not a paper cut, since Joe User isn't likely to use SFTP. ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: New = Invalid -- ssh connection should open the user directory by default https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290703 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 290703] Re: ssh connection should open the user directory by default
I think this is quite an annoyance when working in remote directories via SSH. When I log on via ssh shell I start in my Home Folder, thus this is my default expectation when connecting via gvfs. I think this could be a simple fix so I subscribed 100 Paper Cuts.
