Hi all, I want to connect into a server using SSH. I used to do this in Ubuntu via "connect to server" but now I'm running Xubuntu and there seems to be no such feature.

I really need the ability to drag'n'drop stuff onto the server (It saves so much time!). Can I somehow install the "connect to server" feature from Ubuntu? If not, then what other graphical tools are there to connect to a server using SSH?

Need a recommendation - Cheers! :)

You could try installing Nautilus and typing in the Alt+F2 window:
nautilus --no-desktop sftp://username@server

most ftp clients now can connect via sftp.

Yes, this is a possibility. However, if I have Nautilus AND Thunar then how the heck does that work out?

Also, thanks to cyberdork33. I might just end up using FTP. I think this will be my default choice if that is the case: http://fireftp.mozdev.org/

Nautilus, Konqueror, Filezilla and Gftp can all do graphical connections to sshd.

Cheers,
