How to setup a SFTP server?

[baojd42]

Hi! This is a great project. I really like it.

But I am struggling with SFTP server.

Am I supposed to create one in the menu below? I don't see the SFTP as an option.

Thanks.

Normally, you log in to SFTP using your SSH credentials. Therefore, you need to create a new SSH server and then right-click on it to open SFTP; that's currently the only way...

Thank you for your reply!

But I don't see a SFTP option even right clicking on the SSH server.

Or right clicking on the tab.

Or right clicking on the terminal.

Do I miss anything? Where should I right click?

That’s strange...

It should actually look like this:

Are you sure it’s an SSH server? SFTP should normally appear for any SSH server. Do you have the latest version of Nexterm? If not, I recommend installing the latest version via Docker using this guide: https://nexterm.dev/install

From your screenshots, I couldn't tell which client you are using for Nexterm... Are you perhaps using an old client version like 1.0.7 (e.g., an old version of the Nexterm Connector), or are you using Nexterm in the browser?

Hi @j-gaertig !

Thank you so much for your reply. And sorry for my late feedback.

It turns out I didn't configure the personal identities... Instead, I type in username and password everytime for connections.

After the identity is set, the SFTP shows up.

Okay. Great that the problem has been solved.
