Description ray 2011-01-24 01:21:22 UTC 
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.5.95) 
OS:                Linux

With KDE-4.5.5 and dolphin or konqueror:
entering "fish://user@remote.host:port/path/as/required" into the location bar allows browsing of remote filesystem.

Using KDE-4.5.95 (4.6-RC2): if the remote host is not in "known_hosts" and/or a public key is not in the remote "authorized_keys", the appropriate prompts are given.  After successful authentication ... nothing.  The status bar in Dolphin displays 'Connecting ...' indefinately.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
open Dolphin or Konqueror
enter "fish://user@remote.host:port/path/as/required" into the location bar
if prompted accept remote host
if prompted supply a valid password for the remote host


Actual Results:  
No remote files or folders are displayed

Expected Results:  
Remote filesystem to  be displayed, be browsable and to allow file transfer to and from.

Problem still in 4.6.0
Comment 2 larry.i.smith 2011-02-12 18:06:28 UTC 
openSUSE 11.4 Milestone 6 -and- RC1...

The "fish" and "sftp" protocols never return - stay "connecting".
Yet ssh from the command line works fine.

Konqueror does prompt for the userid/password as it should.
The userid/password are saved in the Wallet correctly.

seems fixed in 4.6.1 -- tested with konqueror using openSuSE-11.4
