It would be really nice if openssh-server would publish via Avahi the SSH and SFTP services by default. Examples of both services are provided in /usr/share/doc/avahi-daemon/examples/.
Publishing the SFTP service would be great because Nautilus (and other file managers, I suppose) lists, in it's Network "folder", all computers that are publishing that service, allowing to easily connect to those computers via SFTP and transfer files, much like Samba (no guest access, though). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openssh in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/387091 Title: openssh-server should broadcast availability via avahi To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/387091/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
