NppFTP No folder display
-
Have been using NppFTP to access my two routers and still can access one of them. However, on the misbehaving router where the folders are not displayed the output is:
[NppFTP] Everything initialized
Connecting
[SFTP] Host key accepted
[SFTP] Successfully authenticatedBy contrast on a successful connection where the folders are displayed in Npp the router output is:
[NppFTP] Everything initialized
Connecting
[SFTP] Host key accepted
[SFTP] Successfully authenticated
ConnectedSo, not quite getting to Connected on the misbehaving router. The very same credentials are successfully used to connect via SSH so I’m bewildered about how to resolve this issue.

When I have trouble with NppFTP plugin connecting somewhere, my first debug tool is trying to use another tool (Filezilla or WinSCP usually, or a command-line sftp client like the psftp that comes with putty) to connect, trying to keep the settings as much the same as possible between the two. If the second tool cannot connect, then either there’s a gross mistake I’m making common to both clients (wrong credentials), or there’s something wrong on the server’s end.
OTOH, if one client connects whereas NppFTP does not, then I’d double-check to make sure that NppFTP is configured as much like FZ/WinSCP/psftp as possible. When that fails, I’d go to the NppFTP Plugin’s issues or help area, because the NppFTP experts hang out there.

TY. I’ll have to familiarize myself with Putty’s built-in tool. Failing that, I’ll try the Plugin’s forum.Hmm, the Openssh-sftp-server had vanished from the afflicted router. That’s odd. Reinstalling that package fixed the folder display issue.
