====================================================================== smb:// issues (Gvfs/GIO option): Network group, machine, and share browsing does not work correctly. sftp:// (Gvfs/GIO option): Only sftp access using public key authentication works. To easily setup public key authentication to "remote_host": ssh-keygen cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh remote_host "cat >> .ssh/authorized_keys" The SSH server on remote_host must allow pub key authentication. ====================================================================== Any bug reports should be addressed to the maintainers at: gecko@FreeBSD.org You may also Cc: freebsd-ports@FreeBSD.org. Please do not send bug reports to any other addresses.
