Bug Description
Binary package hint: nautilus
I am using Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy (development). My version of nautilus is 1:2.21.
Expected behaviour:
1. Go to Places menu
2. Select 'Connect to Server...'
3. Select Service Type 'SSH'
4. Enter valid value for "Server:" and "User:" (the user name on the particular server I'm connecting to is not the same as my local user name) and leave all other values blank
5. Press 'Connect'
6. Window appears containing contents of remote directory (probably / since I'm not entering a value at Folder:)
Actual behaviour:
6. does not occur. Instead an error dialog appears with "Can't display location "sftp://[remote user]@[server name]/ The specified location is not mounted"
I can ssh to [remote user]@[server name] on the command line; there are no errors about host key verification or anything else.
