I can reproduce that, both with sudo or with root console. Would very
much appreciate it if this was filed as a bug, as I'm in need of this
functionality and I'd be happy to have it directly in nautilus.

In the meantime, anyone have any good tips for SFTP clients to use, or
some way of getting this to work? I'm aware of the commandline one, but
I'd rather have a GUI one, and if possible one that integrates with the
environment... gFTP does not work, I'm not really sure what it does but
it looks like it tries to start a sftp server when it wants to connect,
and that doesn't work.

Thanks!
