[Bug 424648] Re: "Error: ssh program unexpectedly exited" when trying to browse files on router

[Dmitry Zotikov]

Hey,

on the server side, try to specify the full path to the sftp-server
binary explicitly in the sshd's config file. In Debian that would be:

Subsystem       sftp    /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server

Worked for me at least.

Title:
  "Error: ssh program unexpectedly exited" when trying to browse files
  on router

Status in “openssh” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  If I try to browse the filesystem on my router through Nautilus, ssh
  crashes, even though I can access it through SSH on the command line.

  This is probably because the router lacks whatever lets you browse
  files (it's a minimal ssh server), but the error message could be more
  helpful.

      Could not display "sftp://root@router/".
