graphical ssh for linux

Hi,

For those who are new into linux world. Graphical ssh for linux is always an issue. People look for GUI in linux.

There is one which I use named Konqueror.

How to get that? It is probably installed already in linux.

Go to, applications -> internet -> konqueror.

On the address bar, type

sftp://username@ip.address.of.site

or

sftp://username@www.mysite.com

and it will come up with graphical view of your ssh.

To add files,

draw your files from local machine into the browser window. You will see three options,

a. move
b. copy
c. cancel

Select your choice and transfer will begin.

NOTE: While transfering from konqueror window to your local machine. It is always a move operation. So be careful while dragging files from konqueror to your local machine.
