Sort of following on from my "unable to sftp://" issue:

I've never watched the remote server logs before when using sftp:// , but it appears the ssh-key authentication occurs every time I move from directory-to-directory on my remote server.  Is that suppose to happen?

(It just may be yet another bizarre result of  the "unable to  sftp://" issue.)

As fas as I can remember, the connection is reestablished every time. So, yes.

yes unfortunately, I was looking in and it is the tdeio responsible. I am just wondering how this can be optimized to close the tdeio only when this konqueror window closes.

As for the password I click save password and it is saved in the k/tdewallet - so it is asking the wallet after unlocking it the first time.
