The remote computer needs to be running the <acronym class="acronym">SSH</acronym> daemon, but the remainder of the protocol uses standard commandline tools as discussed below.</p><p>You can use the fish kioslave like this:
<strong class="userinput"><code>fish://<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="replaceable"><em class="replaceable"><code>hostname</code></em></span></code></strong> or <strong class="userinput"><code>fish://<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="replaceable"><em class="replaceable"><code>username</code></em></span>@<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="replaceable"><em class="replaceable"><code>hostname</code></em></span></code></strong>.</p><div class="note" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;"><h3 class="title">Note</h3><p>You need to use double forward slashes.</p></div><p>You can omit the <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="replaceable"><em class="replaceable"><code>username</code></em></span> (and the trailing
@ symbol) if you have the same username on both computers.</p><p>You can add a password in the format:
<strong class="userinput"><code>fish://<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="replaceable"><em class="replaceable"><code>username</code></em></span>:<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="replaceable"><em class="replaceable"><code>password</code></em></span>@<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="replaceable"><em class="replaceable"><code>hostname</code></em></span></code></strong>
but it is not necessary as you will be prompted for one if it is not
supplied.</p><p>If you are running the <acronym class="acronym">SSH</acronym> daemon on a non-standard
port, you can specify that port using the normal <acronym class="acronym">URL</acronym> syntax as shown
below:
<strong class="userinput"><code>fish://<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="replaceable"><em class="replaceable"><code>hostname</code></em></span>:<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="replaceable"><em class="replaceable"><code>portnumber</code></em></span></code></strong>.</p><p>Fish should work with any roughly <acronym class="acronym">POSIX</acronym> compatible
<span class="trademark">UNIX</span>® based remote computer. It uses the shell commands
<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>cat</strong></span></span>, <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>chgrp</strong></span></span>,
<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>chmod</strong></span></span>, <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>chown</strong></span></span>,
<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>cp</strong></span></span>, <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>dd</strong></span></span>,
<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>env</strong></span></span>, <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>expr</strong></span></span>,
<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>grep</strong></span></span>, <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>ls</strong></span></span>,
<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>mkdir</strong></span></span>, <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>mv</strong></span></span>,
<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>rm</strong></span></span>, <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>rmdir</strong></span></span>,
<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>sed</strong></span></span>,
and <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>wc</strong></span></span>. Fish starts
<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>/bin/sh</strong></span></span> as its shell and expects it to be a
Bourne shell (or compatible, like <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>bash</strong></span></span>).
If the <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>sed</strong></span></span> and
<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>file</strong></span></span> commands are available, as well as a
<code class="filename">/etc/apache/magic</code> file with <acronym class="acronym">MIME</acronym> type
signatures, these will be used to guess <acronym class="acronym">MIME</acronym> types.
</p><p>If <span class="application">Perl</span> is available on the remote
machine, it will be used instead. Then only <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>env</strong></span></span> and
<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>/bin/sh</strong></span></span> are needed. Using
<span class="application">Perl</span> has the additional benefit of being
faster.</p><p>Fish may even work on <span class="trademark">Windows</span>® machines, if tools like
<span class="application">Cygwin</span> are installed.  All the above
utilities must be in the system <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="envar"><code class="envar">PATH</code></span>, and the initial
shell must be able to process the command <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span class="command"><strong>echo
FISH:;/bin/sh</strong></span></span> correctly.</p></div></div><div id="footer"><div class="navCenter"><table class="navigation"><tr><td class="prevCell"></td><td class="upCell"> </td><td class="nextCell"></td></tr><tr><td class="prevCell"> </td><td class="upCell"> </td><td class="nextCell"> </td></tr></table></div><div id="footer_text">Would you like to make a comment or contribute an update to this page?<br>Send feedback to the <a href="mailto:kde-doc-english@kde.org" class="footer_email">KDE Docs Team</a></div></div></div></body></html></FILENAME>
