Version: (using KDE Devel) Installed from: Compiled sources My SSH login name for a server is in the form of an email address (me@somebox.com) , and is quite long. To save me from having to type it in everywhere, I have an entry for it in my ~/.ssh/config like this: Host somebox.com User me@somebox.com To my dismay, neither FISH nor SFTP seem to respect the settings in this file - it is trying to connect with my local username, and failing (if it had been actually connecting with the name in the file, I would not even need a password, because of my keys ). I also have some other settings in there regarding compression that I would like it to be respecting. Let me know if I should also be filing a duplicate bug report for the FISH IO slave. I don't know if they have different maintainers?
I'd really like to see feature implemented soon.
Full Ack.. this would be really good and i'm longing for this feature too =)
Created attachment 19563 [details] sftpkio-sshconfig.patch
ah - never attached a patch before.. wasn't quite sure, what it was going to look like. so anyways - i made a little patch for kde-3.5.6 it gives you the possibility to read User and Port from .ssh/config . SSH_FORWARDAGENT and SSH_FORWARDX11 should be editable now too, eventhough they're probably not really relevant for the sftp:// connection. compression i think was always able to be edited btw, but i'm not really sure about that. enjoy =)
Comment on attachment 19563 [details] sftpkio-sshconfig.patch will let sftp_kio read a few settings from .ssh/config
