Nautilus doesn't save server connection settings

[Sergei Solo]

While connecting to remote SSH or FTP servers via Nautilus tool "Connect to server", there is option to forget or remember password. Whatever you choose, it will forget password.

This also affects me. In addition it doesn't use the ssh key of the current user, so I cannot use that as a workaround.

I was able to workaround this by using sftp://user@host/ when my ssh key exists in authorized_keys on the remote server, it will not ask for the password using this method.

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

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
