I've never played around with this properly, so I'm not sure how exactly the URL should be constructed, but just try doing File -> Open in gedit and typing in something like: ftp://username:password@machine:port/path/to/file or perhaps ssh://username:password@machine:port/path/to/file No doubt someone else on the list can tell you more precisely.
