0001 Freqeuently Asked Questions, last updated for kio_fish 1.1 0002 0003 Q: Typing fish:/some.host.com does not work 0004 A: It is fish://some.host.com (double slash) 0005 0006 Q: How can I use a different port? 0007 A: Use regular URL syntax: fish://some.host.com:2222 0008 0009 Q: Something isn't working. I get strange/no displays 0010 A: Could be a bug, could be a problem with the remote 0011 tools. Try having perl somewhere in the PATH on the 0012 remote machine, that should work reliably. Shell- 0013 only mode is prone to different tool's opinion about 0014 parameters and what they mean. Shell-only mode is 0015 thouroughly tested only on GNU tools, and has 0016 superficial testing on BSD and Digital Unix. Solaris 0017 seems to have problems. Any reports for shell mode on 0018 non-GNU machines welcome (BTW, if you see a file 0019 .fishsrv.pl in your remote home directory, fish did 0020 use perl mode) 0021 0022 Q: The connection stays open. How do I disconnect? 0023 A: Just wait. The system default idle timeout is used. 0024 (about a minute or so) 0025 0026 Q: Why are there no icons? 0027 A: With this release, you should have icons almost always, 0028 but best results are obtained if you install a recent 0029 version of the 'file' utility that supports the '-i' 0030 option. 0031 0032 Q: How do I specify which program to use for SSH? 0033 A: Not at all, sorry. After evaluating other programs (rsh, 0034 rlogin, telnet) I came to the conclusion it was way too 0035 complex to support these, as only ssh supports both, 0036 password authentication and automatic execution. 0037
