SFTP via Nemo

Hello,

I've been trying to access OMV via Nemo using SFTP.

This used to work fine on a previous (Mint) setup, so would't expect much trouble here.

With SSH enabled, port set, I can get a PW request response.

But none of my (usually accepted) passwords work.

I am still working on shared and home folders but the error message I get it "could not display sftp://192.168.169.170/:123 access was denied".

Does this mean "no home directorz set" or "no allocated space found"?

I think before I try this, I will need to specify a path that is not root-owned.

If I try as "admin@" or "root@" (so I can specify a path that works = / ), I get "please verify your user details.

I probablz cannot use a user from group "users" right now as I haven't allocated a home path for them.

Something for tomorrow, thanks for the idea so far!

Thanks.

That solved it.

Added the user to the ssh group and I can access the home folder via Nemo easily.

However, it is the complete home folder. I‘d prefer to limit this a bit further so it’s just less complex when used as a simply file share/dropbox.

I‘d mark this one as solved as I‘ve just opened another thread on trying to do this with a USB stick as a test- before mounting my real backup drives.
