I used to be able to SSH into servers from my Nautilus. This allowed me to manipulate files as if they were on my own PC. However, lately I can't get in? It says:

Could not display "sftp://name@host/".

Error: Timed out when logging in
Please select another viewer and try again.


where name is my login name for the ssh and host is the server FQDN.

I can still SSH from Bash, so the problem is not on the server.

I went to my home folder, enabled SHOW HIDDEN FILES and deleted the folder .ssh

now it works...

Genius! I'd been racking my brains for an answer to this one for days. So simple but it worked for me too.

Cheers
