Oh I get it now. My mistake. I completely misunderstood your original report though I read it a couple of times. What you are saying is that if one of the authentication method fails, publickey authentication, then it should try another one, keyboard-interactive authentication, and not fail because the first mode failed, right? Does the command line sftp allow you to do this? BTW, specifying the password in the URL does not mean you want to use one authentication method over the other. IOW, that will not override something else that is specified in your ssh config file. None of the protocols in KDE work that way and in fact people are discouraged from specifying passwords in URL for a very obvious reason. It is supported because the URL specification supports it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
