Bug Description

If I've added a SSH-connection with a new group and don't specify a password, the connection can't be established. The SSH window opens for a moment and exits without any comment. I think in minimum it should be asked for a password. Also the password shouldn't be visible but masked wit stars.

I filled in the following boxes:
- username
- host
- description

Hi,

Maybe it's a problem with the host or user because the password isn't being feed to the terminal.

The password is just an informative and optional field since it isn't really used for anything (for now at least).

You're right that no error is shown, so if the connection fails, there's no way to knowing what happened. With this bug I'll try to fix it.

Thanks for the report.

summary: - Connection aborted, if password isn't specified. Should ask for
- password.
