FTP SSH plugin and command line

[fabiochelly]

Is it possible to support command line in this plugin?

Actually, I must continue using my old SSH program to support SSH commands

History of the SFTP Plugin says:
31.8.2002 - Christian Ghisler:
Added - handle 'quote' command for command line, currently only for 'cd' command to set new root, e.g. cd

Just modify the SFTP plugin to your needs and recompile it...

[fabiochelly]

Do I have to create each command I need?

[André Martin]

Hm... I am not sure - I think it would be better to ask the author to do the implementation...

Hi I've just installed the SSH FTP plugin as listed on the plugins page. It appears in network neighbourhood and I added a connection without any worries. However when I double click the entry and enter my password I get the following error:

Access violation at address 01887966. Read of address 00000000.
Please report this etc etc etc

I'm using win2k sp3 and connecting to a freebsd machine. I have verified that the connection works using psftp.exe.

Any hints??

Please try it with PUTTY too - the plugin is based on PUTTY. A common mistake which can cause such a crash is that the server prints some text in its login script. This will be printed in an SFTP session too, and will confuse PUTTY because it expects special connection bytes.

[mribbons]

Do you mean initiate a simple ssh connection with Putty to the host? That also works fine.

[ghisler(Author)]

No, I mean an SFTP connection with Putty. A simple SSH connection would not fail, because it would simply print the login message on screen.

[mribbons]

Ahh, I've done that. You mean psftp.exe, right?

[ghisler(Author)]

Yes, exactly!

you guys just got me out of a big problem with sftp not working (I meant a regular client)

sftp for TC doesn't work for me!!

• it's really slow to start

• it tends to hang TC about 80% of the time

and since some people seem to know well about ssh: how come I get to authenticate "twice" on my server (once enter password, and then reply yes to "enter authentication response"). and some clients do a double login (open a separate window)

this doesn't happen with cmd-line clients though.

does anybody have a clue ?

One FTP SSH connection, which I need to make frequently, times out after 3 minutes of inactivity. So I can open a file, and the connection will timeout while I am browsing, before I open the next file.

Is there any way to increase the timeout interval? Or perhaps a "keep alive" option for the plugin?

Thanks,
Jonathan
