I can pass to sftp a “-B buffer_size” parameter when I call it from the command line.
But how do I pass that parameter to sftp when I use Gnome’s File to connect to a host via sftp?
I go into File’s Network tab, and at the bottom of the page I enter sftp:// ….
When I do that, does File use a command line that’s taken from a file somewhere? How can I modify that command to add the -B parameter?
I am using ~/.ssh/config with these lines:
Host *
ServerAliveInterval 1
ServerAliveCountMax 3
But I cannot control the buffer size in that ~/.ssh/config file. I know the file is being looked at, since I can put erroneous info into the file and sftp rejects it when I call sftp on the command line.
