Make your SSH connection a Nautilus folder

Postby viking60 » 08 Nov 2010, 19:13

Once you have connected with ssh it is easy to make it a folder on your desktop:

Okay, I can't quite see on that exactly what you're doing... :( It's small on there for me.

Okay, watched it in full screen, and kinda get it, but can't tell what you chose in the menu there (it's in Norwegian)...

So! It isn't my fault that you are a foreigner. :T
Selcet connect to server or something simular under <File>
Basically you select SSH
then you enter the server name.
skip the port and enter your starting folder like so:
/home/dedanna/public_html
Then you enter the username.

You will be prompted for password and you can save it "forever"
After that you have a folder that you can drag your pages on to, and they are published on the web immediately..

Ah, okay! Thank you!

And yeah, that's not your fault. I'm the foreigner. LOL. Smack me! :mandriva:

Am I doing something wrong, or ?

I put username as dedanna, rather than [email protected] (or whatever the full one is)

Yes you have got the data wrong!
dedanna is correct without the whole enchilada.
I suspect there is something wrong with the path for your home folder.
Try it without the path - just skip it for testing

Let me know if you manage.
Once you get it right you are in the clear. :tux5:
Of course you can upload your files with rsync syncing you local webpages with the ones on the server.

Yeah, got that about rsync.

Looks like it could very well be on my end, but I'm not sure how to resolve the issue:

dbus error + timeout

I entered in order:
viking60.dyndns.org
folder: /home/dedanna/public_html
username: dedanna

You have a space there (after dedanna? or in front of the server name) that should not be there! Remove it!
And leave the folder (/home/dedanna etc..) empty for now...
Also could your IP have changed?

I still get the dbus error - no spaces in anything.

I think something's going on with dbus honestly - am going to logout/login later, and will try again after that. Hopefully, dbus will get its act together with that.

Without the folder in there, that's all I get, is the dbus portion of the error.

Oooohhh wait a minute. Hang on here. Ack, never mind. Thought I might not have openssh installed, but I do:

Code: Select all

# pacman -S openssh
warning: openssh-5.6p1-1 is up to date -- reinstalling


Yeah, gonna logout/login soon as I can, or even reboot...

Can you log in via traditional ssh?
