Help talk : Access to Toolforge instances with PuTTY and WinSCP
Please review my edit
I just added a warning about file ownership when logged to Labs by WinSCP, it has been the cause of a personal newbye headhache. Please review my edit and convert it into a formally better statement if needed. -- Alex brollo ( talk ) 11:30, 3 March 2014 (UTC)

SFTP-Server setting does not work
seems
sudo -u tools.PROJECT-NAME /usr/lib/sftp-server
does not work and it gives "sudo: /user/lib/sftp-server: command not found". Setting "Standard" look good.

Looks like you have a typo in there? It should be /usr/lib/sftp-server, not /us
e
r/lib/sftp-server.

- Thanks for reply. I had /usr/lib/sftp-server and it failed. But it works after "Standard" access and replacing that line again the after the first connection. @ xqt 15:32, 5 January 2022 (UTC)
Bastion hosts
Portal:Toolforge/About Toolforge#How is Toolforge structured? says:
You can log in to Toolforge through a bastion host . There are two bastion hosts to choose from:
- login.toolforge.org
- user login to access tools interactively
- dev.toolforge.org
- functionally identical, please use this for heavy processing such as compiles
But Help:Access to Toolforge instances with PuTTY and WinSCP#How to set up PuTTY for direct access to your Toolforge account says to specify host names:
- tools-login.wmflabs.org
- tools-dev.wmflabs.org
Are these the same servers under their former brand names? Should I specify the new names login.toolforge.org and dev.toolforge.org instead? Will the old names still work? Does it matter? Thanks, Wbm1058 ( talk ) 17:06, 15 May 2022 (UTC)

Key no accepted
Hi, I tried to connect via Putty and WinSCP but my private key was refused in both cases. Any idea why and how I could generate a new one? PS: I changed my laptop recently, is that the reason? Thanks in advance. Lebronj23 ( talk ) 13:11, 7 September 2023 (UTC)
