Hi, I packaged the Sion apps for zenwalk. Package is here : http://zenwalk.pinguix.com/user-accounts/bip/ISO/xap/sion/ I try to create a ftp connection but it is refused. In fact for my ftp user account, I have a "@" so when sion try to connect to the ftp server, he saw two "@" in the ftp address and refuse the connection. My login is something like that : username@zenwalk.org So the full address that sion tries is ftp://username@zenwalk.org@ftp.zenwalk.com I hope it is clear. Keep me inform if you want more information. Thanks in advance Frédéric
I know this problem, I also have a FTP account whose username contains an @ character. But this is not a problem of Sion but of GVFS. For instance, try on the command line: gvfs-mount ftp://username@zenwalk.org@ftp.zenwalk.com This is very similar to what Sion does and will fail with: Error mounting location: Could not connect to host So, please file a bug at GVFS about this. Thanks.
I forgot to mention: as a workaround, just leave the username for the bookmark empty. Sion will then popup a dialog which asks you to enter the username and password. Connecting this way will work. And when using gnome-keyring, the username and password are stored for future connections.
Thanks for the information and the workaround. I'm going to try to write a bug report for GVFS.
Just for the records: there is an easier workaround: instead of the literal @ sign in the username, just use "%40" (without the quotes). Future versions of Gigolo will do this automatically.
Thanks for the tips :-)
