Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gvfs
$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 8.04.1
Release: 8.04
I connect regularly to several servers via ssh. I've been using sshfs
(which uses sftp) to access the files on this server, but I would like
to switch to gvfs to enable better integration with the desktop. In my
experimentation, I've found that one and only one of the servers that I
connect to will not mount via the sftp transport of gvfs. It just so
happens that this is the only server that runs an ssh.com server
(ssh.com is another implementation of ssh). All the other servers run
openssh. Needless to say, ssh, sftp, and sshfs all work fine with the
offending server, and I have my public key installed at each server to
allow passwordless logins everywhere. Only gvfs has trouble.
>From this, I conclude that the sftp transport of gvfs is probably unable
to talk to ssh.com servers, though the sample size is admittedly not
large enough to really establish a correlation.
Here is some information on the ssh distribution of the offending server:
ssh: SSH Secure Shell 3.2.9.1 (non-commercial version) on rs6000-ibm-aix

Let me know what other information you would need.
