Louis Jacques reported a problem in ExpanDrive on May 21, 2009 21:41:
No support for PowerPC ?I'm trying to get ExpanDrive working on my iBook G4 for a while.
Everything is working fine except for SFTP, which is the feature that made me try ED in the first place and the only one I'll need.
My observations are :
First in the Console while loading ED :
2009-05-21 17:05:59.715 Safari[539] CFLog (21):
dyld returns 2 when trying to load /Users/louisjacques/Library/Contextual Menu Items/ExpanDriveCMPlugin.bundle/Contents/MacOS/ExpanDriveCMPlugin
I've no idea why there's "Safari[539]" but I went to problematic dorectory and tried this :
$ lipo -info ExpanDriveCMPlugin
Non-fat file: ExpanDriveCMPlugin is architecture: i386
ok, that's it. it's compile for i386 and I have a PowerPC
As the rest of ED works with PowerPC, I don't know if this is a mistake (you didn't compile this part in Universal) or if it is necessary (Intel only feature being used).
Either way, there's a problem because even if it's the latter, I should get a nice message telling me "SFTP doesn't work with PowerPC" or the feature should be disabled altogether.
Is this will be solved in the next release ?
Thank you

Doesn't manage passwords properly with sshI try to connect to a OpenBSD 4.5 i386 box from a iBook G4 with OS X 10.4.11 but ED never succeed or showed any error, it just keeps trying apparently.
I look at the /var/log/authlog file on the remote machine (which I can acces with command line ssh and found these lines related to ED attempts to connect :
May 11 14:53:10 sp sshd[7669]: Failed password for louis from xx.xx.95.145 port 48708 ssh2
May 11 14:55:08 sp sshd[31267]: fatal: Timeout before authentication for xx.xx.95.145
May 11 14:55:08 sp sshd[7669]: fatal: Timeout before authentication for xx.xx.95.145
It seems that ED doesn't give the right password, doesn't report the problem and leaves the connection open (the connection is in CLOSE_WAIT state on the client side after 2 min).
It seems is that ED doesn't manage correctly how to give the password.
The problem appears on all ssh connection I try to do with other server as well, but I don't have access to the logs of these servers.
This is a little bit frustrating.
Thanks
