Bug Description
Ubuntu 8.04 & 8.10
Using Nautilus Connect to server, and choosing FTP (with login), entering (domain/IP) address, user, and hitting "Connect".
Prompts for password, and then displays:
"The folder contents could not be displayed"
"Sorry, couldn't display all the contents of "/ on [host-address/IP]": The file is not a directory"
To me it seems to be a problem with the directory on the server. the folder for the user is not the root / folder of the server it is: "/d:/www/
So Nautilus tries to connect to domain.ch/ where it has no permission!
When connecting with the ftp> (Terminal) to "domain.ch/" there is also an error "ftp: domain.ch/: Unknown host
Opening "domain.ch" leads to prompting the Username and afterwards the pw
Perhaps Nautilus automatically adds the / at the end of the URL and this causes problems.
Connecting directly to domain.
