Description Jonas De Vuyst 2005-12-24 23:19:59 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
When trying to create a symlink to a remote file or directory, I get an error
dialog saying something to the effect of:

   Title: Error upon creating links
   Error "Non-supported command' when creating a link to "sftp://..."
   Do you want to continue?
   [Cancel] [Retry]

I tried this with sftp: and davs: links.

The correct behaviour should probably be that a .desktop shortcut is created.

Steps to reproduce:
1. 
2. 
3. 


Actual results:


Expected results:


Does this happen every time?
