I encountered a little problem with Filezilla 3 when I tried to connect to my web hosting on SF.net via SFTP. Recently they have changed the connections directives;
So I tried to put in Filezilla NAME,PROJECT@web.sourceforge.net as host (but i replaced NAME and PROJECT by the right values of course ).Project web content may be maintained in the following ways, using the sftp:
Use your SourceForge.net account name (NAME) and your project UNIX name (PROJECT) to update files on the project web server. From a command line, this is issued as:
sftp NAME,PROJECT@web.sourceforge.net
cd htdocs
A sample session might look like this for project Toast (UNIX name: toast):
sftp hinojosa,toast@web.sourceforge.net
cd htdocs
put index.html
bye
The problem is that when connecting, Filezilla automatically removed everything that was before the @ !
The only way I found to overcome this limitation, was by setting web.sourceforge.net as the host, and the username NAME,PROJECT
I don't understand why the Account option in Authentification isn't accepted as valid when using SFTP ? It would be much more genuine to accept PROJECT as the account value.
