This Bug can be reproduced as Reiner Jung in comment #11 describes. Before marking this bug as fixed I uninstalled nautilus-bzr and didn't notice that it was just because of that.
Steps to reproduce: 1. sudo apt-get install nautilus-bzr 2. killall nautilus 3. Open any sftp folder. ssh wrongly asks tree times for the password. To let the bug disappear: 4. sudo apt-get remove nautilus-bzr 5. killall nautilus 6. Open any sftp folder. Now ssh won't ask for a password. And everything works as before -- openssh (or gvfs) asks for a password everytime I change directory in sftp https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/540280 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gvfs in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
