Description Pascal d'Hermilly 2016-05-09 08:38:53 UTC

I was getting really weird connection problems using sftp://
When I finally tried to connect with commandline ssh to debug I got this warning:

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
@         WARNING: UNPROTECTED PRIVATE KEY FILE!          @
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Permissions 0644 for '/home/pascal/.ssh/id_rsa' are too open.
It is required that your private key files are NOT accessible by others.
This private key will be ignored.
Load key "/home/pascal/.ssh/id_rsa": bad permissions

When I fixed it the problems where resolved. It would be really nice if Dolphin would show the user messages like this.

Reproducible: Always

Tagging this as a wish; we should do this but it's not really a bug but rather a possible improvement. Thanks for reporting this issue!
