Hourglass when trying to browse hosts

[7k50]

I'm trying to connect to an Amazon Web Services SFTP. After trying to add the connection, I can only see an hourglass indefinitely in the "Browse Hosts" window. The same goes for "Show Open Files".

When trying to add a new SFTP host, I have used these settings:

• Hostname: The IP adress
• Default directory: /
• Username: My username
• Port: 22
• Authentication settings: Private key
• Private key path: The path to the PEM file
• Private key passphrase: Not sure what to put here, but I've tried entering the SSH passphrase, as well as leaving it empty.

In the package settings I have:

• No SSH agent (Default)
• Default path to serialize remoteEdit data: Path to a newly created, empty folder
• Path to private SSH key: Same path as above for the PEM key

Looks to be similar to https://github.com/mscdex/ssh2/issues/366.

Have you tried using any other connection options? (password, different key format, user agent)

Hey, thanks for getting back to me.

I haven't tried any other connection options atm. AWS requires .pem keys AFAIK, I'm not sure if there are any other options for SFTP login, but I will check.
