Version: (using KDE 4.0.5) Installed from: Fedora RPMs I have this setting set for remote tab title format: %h : %u When you SSH into a server which hangs on connection (or doesn't connect at all), the tab and title text already reflects the remote host name. It shouldn't show the remote host name unless there is a successful connection.
Can't fix this really. The username and host are extracted from the commandline arguments to SSH.
Marking this as WONTFIX - it is an inherent limitation of the way Konsole works with the limited information it currently has about the terminal.
