SFTP Manager

Defaults for the dual-panel SFTP file manager and for the JobScheduler's Rsync jobs. Open via Configuration → Global Settings → SFTP Manager; stored in ~/.kortty/global-settings.xml.

SFTP Manager Settings

Setting Type Values Default Stored as
Auto-close SFTP tabs after inactivity toggle Off sftpAutoCloseMinutes (unset or 0)
Timeout (minutes) number 1–120 10 sftpAutoCloseMinutes

Auto-close

An idle SFTP tab closes itself after the timeout, which frees the server-side connection when you forget to close the manager. The timeout field is only editable while the toggle is on, and the two share one stored value: switching the toggle off stores no timeout at all.

ZIP Creation Settings

These are the defaults for creating a ZIP archive on the remote server from the SFTP manager.

Setting Type Values Default Stored as
Default ZIP path text Remote absolute path /tmp sftpDefaultZipPath
Default compression (0-9) number 0–9 6 sftpDefaultZipCompression

Compression levels

0 means no compression (fastest) and 9 the best compression (slowest).

JobScheduler Rsync

Setting Type Values Default Stored as
Rsync binary path path empty (resolve rsync from PATH) jobSchedulerRsyncBinaryPath

Requirements

Leave the path empty to use the rsync found on PATH. Browse picks a binary explicitly. Rsync jobs additionally require ssh to be available on PATH; see JobScheduler.
