From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Resolved: Dolphin won't connect to local SSH server (lemm.ee)

Hi y'all! My set up:

Desktop PC, running Ubuntu 24 and KDE 5.27
Local server running Ubuntu 24

I have had my Dolphin file browser set up to connect to the local server vis SSH since forever but starting this week, it can't seem to connect. It just says "Loading..." forever, no error.

This is the URL it uses for this connection:

sftp://[email protected]:22/

Until last weekend, it just worked. I don't recall anything happening around that time. I don't think anything has changed on the server.

I can still connect via SSH at a terminal just fine so I know the server is online & the user hasn't changed.

Are there logs for Dolphin somewhere? How can I troubleshoot this?

Thanks for any ideas!

EDIT: I, uhhh... rebooted and it works now. Thanks anyway @[email protected] you taught me how to troubleshoot this tool and I appreciate that.

Sure you need port 22 at the end? did you try without it?

I believe it's the way Dolphin invokes using fuse for the connection. Adding the port and trailing path.
