From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040510 Galeon/1.3.14 Description of problem: Though I can browse sftp resources using Nautilus just fine (suggesting gnome-vfs2 is working) I cannot open music files in SFTP resources in Rhythmbox. Doubleclicking in Nautilus doesn't work; RB just opens and sits there. Right-clicking and selecting Open With -> Music Player doesn't work; again, RB just opens and sits there. Opening them through Rhythmbox's import location/import file choices don't work; in the former case, RB just sits there and in the latter, I can't browse the SFTP resource using the file selector. This worked under FC2T3. Thanks! -jag Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.8.4 How reproducible: Always
Do these sftp shares require authentication?
This also happens with nfs shares and rhythmbox. Right click, open with and it will hang, or if you try and add a folder location by going to Music -> Import folder and select an nfs mount point Rhythmnbox will quit completely.
This works perfectly fine for me on recent releases. I can browse and add songs from SFTP resources with no problem. The bug is filed against FC2, which is Fedora Legacy now. I'd recommend the original reporter testing it against something more recent and closing it.
No updates from original reporter after a month and a half, I'm going to assume that this just works in recently releases like FC4 and FC5, since it WORKSFORME on those.
