Sometimes it also says "Failed getting banner".

would it be possible to add -p flag to pass on password in command use? This would be 100 times more useful for anyone in web industry as we are used to WinSCP app which has plenty of not used stuff in there. Thanks

I just observed that when I shutdown a remote server, the FilesRemote program just freezes, instead of showing a dialog to indicate the connection has lost and prompt user to retry connecting. Not sure if that's the expected behavior.

platform: MacOS 10.14.6 version: 1.6

im using my mac with external display, and often run filesremote on external display. but when i don't have external display connected, window still creates on "external desktop" but it does not exists, and window don't have any size, i cant move it to my macbook's display.

video with bug? demonstration

video how to temporary fix

Continuation of #1 based on ideas from @abulka .

Should match on the HostName field rather than the Host field as currently.

Should be able to use connect to hosts using the Host field as aliases.

Should be able to pull username and port from the config too. And possibly other params?

MacOS makes it hard to open new window if you already have one connection open.

Workaround open -n /Applications/FilesRemote.app/.

To do: make a better way.

libssh2_sftp_init hangs when connecting to OpenWRT with Dropbear SSH server.

Seems to be a libssh2 issue, because the same happens with the examples included with libsssh, such as this one: https://github.com/libssh2/libssh2/blob/libssh2-1.10.0/example/sftp.c .

I tried compiling libssh2 with cmake ... -DENABLE_DEBUG_LOGGING=ON , and adding this to sftp.c:

libssh2_trace(session, LIBSSH2_TRACE_KEX | LIBSSH2_TRACE_AUTH | LIBSSH2_TRACE_CONN | LIBSSH2_TRACE_SCP | LIBSSH2_TRACE_SFTP | LIBSSH2_TRACE_ERROR | LIBSSH2_TRACE_PUBLICKEY);

It resulted in the following trace when connecting to an OpenWRT server with Dropbear:

To do: figure out a workaround. Maybe we need a fix upstream in libssh2 or openssl.

This tool is amazing and thank you for your great job in this project! I think it would be great if drag-n-drop support could be added to the already impressive feature set. Basically, drag files/folders from the main window to a file manager window (explorer in Windows, finder in Mac ...) will automatically download the files to the target folder, and uploading works the same way but in a different direction. This would greatly improve usability.
