SSH and SFTP perhaps does not belong in Mozilla since it is not a file manager
lynx, links are no *file*managers for browsers they can handle very well permissions, ...
mozilla / netscape, galeon, opera, i-explorer, ... are no *file*mangers file:/// ftp://
Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) SCHEMES
(last updated 2003-04-28)
This is the Official IANA Registry of URI Schemes
In the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) definition [RFC2396,RFC1738] there is a field, called "scheme", to identify the type of resource and access method.
Scheme Name Description Reference
ftp File Transfer Protocol [RFC1738]
file Host-specific file names [RFC1738]
like Nautilus or kfmclient (Konqueror) were made to be. Konqueror shipped in RH7.3 and higher have sftp://username@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Marking wontfix. See http://www.iana.org/assignments/uri-schemes - (last updated 2001 August 20) Please open a new bug when and if ssh, sftp are IANA-registered URL scheme names.
today is the 2003-05-19 02:00 nothing happened
Someone else mentioned that Nautilus has an add-on that you can compile to add SCP or SFTP URI support, but I never tried it yet. Can anybody submit that to Fedora if you already have it packaged?
this is not my intention you can find it here:
