For anyone reading this thread to figure out file transfer via ssh on mobian I recommend you ignore the above and start here.
Install openssh-server on the pinephone.
1. Generate a key (on the client machine) and copy it up to mobian:
https://wiki.mobian-project.org/doku.php...f-password
*** (IMPORTANT NOTE: When prompted for a yes/no answer by openssh always type the FULL word.. for example type "yes" not just "y".)
OPTIONAL: Use USB-C instead of WiFi: (highly recommended): https://wiki.mobian-project.org/doku.php...networking
2. (On the client machine) Add a "Bookmark" to your favorite File Manager that points to: "sftp://mobian@10.66.0.1/" (modify IP address accordingly)
OPTIONAL: You can set (on the client machine) an alias(s) for your ssh server(s). Here is a guide: https://www.linuxnix.com/5-ssh-alias-exa...nfig-file/ . Then your file manager bookmark will look more like "sftp://mobian/"
Cheers.
