Nautilus sftp via command line

  • 772

I regularly connect to a server via ssh. Lately I've started copying files to and from it, and I find scp very annoying, mainly because bash cannot auto complete over ssh.

I find the connect to server... option very useful, as I can drag and drop and everything. However, it is very annoying to type each time nautilus sftp://server (or fill the dialog box) and then enter username and password, and then to cd to the desired folder. Is there a way to do it in one line, something like

nautilus ntfs://server -u user ...

I couldn't find it anywhere in the documentation.

nautilus sftp nautilus-script

    Found the answer by myself.

    nautilus sftp://USER@SERVER/PATH will open a Nautilus window on the path I need.
