@arubislander Both of your answers are important to me. At first i only searched for an easy option to transfer files to and from my phone. The First Thing that comes to my mind is (S)FTP, when it comes to this topic. So i searched for exact that.

For SMB you have to configure more, but if it pops up in the File-Explorer after that, it is a even better solution.

Full Story is: I have a KeePass in my local-network which i want easy access to.On Android there is an App in which you can Sync your Keepass-Database via SFTP. But a mount of an SMB-Network-Drive would be closer to a "normal" Workflow on the System, i think.

In the Open-Store there is also a KeePass but it doesnt support SFTP right out of the Box - but shows the File-Explorer. So if i could mount via SMB i had my easy access.

Sorry for misleading Topic-Name.

Hi @ikoz , thanks for your reply! SMB would be indeed a nice alternative . And would even be more attractive, when it will show up in the File-Explorer on focal.

I see. Many thanks for your help! I think we can close this thread now

Hi @arubislander and thanks for your fast reply! Okay nice, i didnt think the of the other way around, but actually yes of course

I think i can work with that for now, thanks!

So there is currently no sort of (s)ftp-client for this directly on the phone - besides the command line.

And why doesnt the "Network"-Tab in my File-Explorer show any of my devices? Do i have to activate something for this to work?

Hi!

I am a new User to the UT-World, but have a little experience in Linux and Linux on Mobile-Devices (have several devices which run pmOS and wrote about Steps to help others make it run on them https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/User:GeraltvonNVIDIA ).

Anyway: I want to daily drive my FP4 with some Linux OS and my best bet, because of working GPS and Camera is currently UT. So i will give it a try.

After tinkering for the last weekend i stumbled upon the lack of SFTP Support? When i open the "Network"-Tab in my File-Explorer, there is no option to select some sort of Protocol or IP. Nor do it recognize any of my devices in Network - and there are many ^^'

I stumbled upon this app https://open-store.io/app/ftpmanager.costa which seemed to work in the past, but is abandoned. Is there any option to get SFTP to work, or get that old app to run?
