I went into the ssh_config file but did not find a setting for
the client, sshd_config YES, it is right in there, but the
client side I found nothing. I think it is just a wrap around
for the console. I do not know how many file managers
have it, I have seen in on quite a few. When you open the
file manager under "File" drop down there is New Tab,
New window, Create Folder, Create Document, and
*Connect to Server*.  That is the entry point you click on
it and it gives you a window to put in the server, the
port, the service, user, password. and some other items
Up until now it has always worked for me, but in this one
instance it does not work. It says to check the credentials.

I figure if I could see a log somewhere I might be able to
sort it out.
