Public bug reported:


When accessing an SSH server, the connection is not identified by the used port.  If there is a configuration, where port forwarding is used to forward traffic to multiple SSH servers, only one of the servers can be accessed.

For example, let there be two SSH servers
192.168.1.10:22
192.168.1.20:22
behind a gateway with public address
192.168.2.1
and with port forwarding configuration
192.168.2.1:2201 -> 192.168.1.10:22
192.168.2.1:2202 -> 192.168.1.20:22

Now create two connections with nautilus to the SSH servers:

Service type: SSH
Server: 192.168.2.1
Port: 2201
Folder: /home/user
User name: user
Name to use for connection: Conn1

Service type: SSH
Server: 192.168.2.1
Port: 2202
Folder: /home/user
User name: user
Name to use for connection: Conn2

Connect to "Conn1". You will see the directory listing of "user" in
server 192.168.1.10. Close the window and connect to "Conn2". You will
still see the same directory listing. Expecting to see directory listing
of "user" in server 192.168.1.20 instead.

Even tried to enter the port information to the "Server" field, like this:
Server: 192.168.2.1:2201
Server: 192.168.2.1:2202
with no change in behaviour.

I am using Nautilus 2.14.1 in Ubuntu 6.06 LTS.
