I've got a better idea. :-) Close it. You were right, it was specific to me. I'd forgotten about the issue, but this revisit today made me consider something that was below my radar before, and if I really am the only one getting it... What it was, was a python-based wrapper for ssh that i have to have installed for work purposes for our ssh tunnelling configuration. So $(which ssh) and $(which sftp) et al were pointing to that. It's supposed to be a workalike, just passing through to the real thing for any host not configured for a tunnel (which includes the ones I was testing with), but clearly it was interfering in some manner because I just took them out of $PATH and re-logged-in (a step i might have missed before, forgetting that it's added to $PATH in ~/.profile on the linux box and not ~/.bashrc as on the macs) and now nautilus sftp works fine. So sorry, my bad for wasting time. :-( I suppose it must have been something like the 'ssh' or 'sftp' found on $PATH not being the actual executable, but a script. Or perhaps something in gvfs is just fussy about where it finds them. Maybe it's even a security measure to reject a tampered-with ssh. My only remaining comment on that is that some clue in the error message or in the logs as to why it was unhappy with the ssh it found might have allowed me to resolve it myself much earlier. :-) -- Rachel -- "unable to find supported ssh command" when connecting to sftp server in nautilus https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/237418 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
