Lately I found out the following issue with Dreamweaver and SSH: In Dreamweaver (I use version 8.x) it is obviously possible to create sites and upload and download files with the inbuilt FTP client. However when I upload files via a Secure FTP (SSH) connection on my server Dreamweaver responds me that the username and/or the password are incorrect. It seems that the error message is wrong because this works if I use a simple FTP connection (without encryption).
So I searched the web and I found a solution for the problem. It’s so simple! Just set the flag PasswordAuthentication in your /etc/ssh/ssh_config file to yes. At once Dreamweaver is able to connect to the server via SFTP.
