Hi all,
I want to access SFTP location with films but I can't access it neither from Video/Files and System/File manager.
The server has no default port (2222 instead of 22) and from command line with sftp command I can access easly it, with the same credential.

Here's my configuration:
XBMC (12.2 Git:32b1a5e), Platform: Linux (Ubuntu 11.10 - XBMCbuntu, 3.0.0-17-generic i686

Here's the debug:
http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=74952

20:09:36 T:2723269488 INFO: SFTPSession: Creating new session on host 'server.myisp.net:2222' with user 'USER'

20:09:42 T:3047438096 DEBUG: CGUIMediaWindow::GetDirectory (sources://video/)

":" on Linux sftp means directory, not port, it could be the problem?
Anyone can help me?
TIA

Addition info, on source re-configuration it reach the server! (see additional logs and Wireshark TCP capture)
But the result is the same:

Are you able to sftp with some other client? I actually know very little about Linux but not many seem to answer sftp questions here so thought I'd post anyway.

I did get mine working with my NAS (which is Linux based) and laptop (win 8). xbmc is only installed on my laptop even though I sftp into my NAS to get my media.

I first checked to see if sftp was working at all using filezilla, nevermind xbmc.

If xbmc forum can't help you, you might try a networking forum that knows more about sftp in general. Good luck.

Hi heehee62, thank you.
I tried with x86 XBMCbuntu and with Raspberry Raspbmc, but the result is the same.

This is instead a connection from XBMCbuntu console to the same server and it works:

patanegra@xbmc:~$ sftp -P 2222 USER@Server.myisp.net
The authenticity of host '[server.myisp.net]:2222 ([113.174.17.79]:2222)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is 32:4a:e7:e8:71:e7:e5:03:c4:11:ef:ae:5e:96:ad:82.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? y
Please type 'yes' or 'no': yes
Warning: Permanently added '[server.myisp.net]:2222,[113.174.17.79]:2222' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.
USER@Server.myisp.net's password:
Connected to server.myisp.net.
sftp> get

I can't change sftp port on the server but I suppose non standard port could be the problem.
So it isn't a networking problem, but it depends on sftp client in xbmc.
How I can proceed?

TIA

Any progress on this? It's still an issue in 14.2. 15.0 just freezes when trying to add an SFTP share.
