Comment 1 Danie de Jager 2025-01-13 17:27:29 UTC
The FISH (Files transferred over Shell) protocol is a network protocol that allows users to securely manage and transfer files between computers. It uses Secure Shell (SSH) or Remote Shell (RSH) to connect to remote Linux, Mac, or Unix servers. FISH is supported by several file managers and FTP clients, including: Midnight Commander, Konqueror, lftp, and Krusader. 
To use the FISH protocol, you need a private key on your local machine that matches the public SSH key added to the dashboard. The default path for the private key is: /home/<username>/.ssh/id_rsa and /home/<username>/.ssh/id_dsa.

This works on Dolphin built from git-master on Linux. Entering fish://127.0.0.1 brings up an authentication dialog, so the fish protocol is understood.

Are you able to update Dolphin to 25.08.3 or later from the place you originally installed it?
