Although Nautilus crashes, the SSH share is mounted under /run/user/alpo/gvfs/ and files can be accessed via command line. Accessing it or any subfolder in Nautilus causes the crash. It can be unmounted by Nautilus without crashing.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Alpo Turunen (alpo-turunen)]

This is still an issue with Ubuntu 13.04 beta.

[Alpo Turunen (alpo-turunen)]

Affects Ubuntu 13.04 with Nautilus 3.6.3-0ubuntu16. Connecting to FTP server doesn't crash Nautilus.

[DavidZemon (david-zemon)]

Still affecting 13.10 alpha 2 with Nautilus 3.8.2

Seems like it could be https://git.gnome.org/browse/nautilus/commit/?id=c2a5e05231ea0743ef89e666c37a0a77534b9573 ... could anyone having the issue test if that change fixes it?

[jingles (slk-novikov)]

Still in 17.10, at least at non-standart sftp servers (Mikrotik Router OS)

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

The bug is years old without activity nor recent similar report, closing as deprecate. You can open a new bug if that's still an issue though
