We've had no complaints so far on this issue, possibly because most people use bash. I'm subscribing Guillaume Desmottes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> who implemented SFTP support back in 2005.
Back in those days the problem was that we could either omit the command and let the ssh client allocate a tty for us and start an interactive shell session, or just execute one command and quit immediately. Guillaume's solution was to cd and afterwards execute sh -l. I think we definitly want an interactive login shell, but I'm not sure how else we can ensure this. It's really tricky :/. -- open-terminal doesn't create a shell over ssh properly https://launchpad.net/bugs/90880 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
