Only a password prompt > Agreed - so ssh assumes you want to use the existing shells login account - unless you want another name - then you would type: $ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] in which case it still only asks for just a password. Funnily enough, through kio_fish - when you put: fish://192.168.10.101 a dialog comes up asking for BOTH name and password - giving the wrong impression of how it should work. We appear to be in agreement that it doesn't make sense the way it presently works. I will try to contact the developer and see if I can get him/her to see this.
