The dialog shows information about server you are connected to, the protocol you are using and the remote file system. To show the dialog go to Session > Server/protocol Information.

The dialog has three tabs. Each is described individually.

Protocol

The Protocol tab shows known information about the current session.

With protocols based on SSH (SFTP and SCP) the Server Host Key Fingerprint box shows fingerprint of host key used for current SSH session. This is the key you have verified before (usually on the first attempt to connect to the server).

With FTP and WebDAV protocols over TLS/SSL the Certificate Fingerprint box shows fingerprint of certificate used for current session. This is the certificate you have verified before (usually on the first attempt to connect to the server). Click Full certificate button to show all details about certificate.

Remote system = UNIX Type: L8 File transfer protocol = FTP Cryptographic protocol = TLS/SSL Implicit encryption, TLSv1 Encryption algorithm = TLSv1/SSLv3: AES256-SHA, 4096 bit RSA Compression = No

Space available

The Space available tab shows information about storage space for the current remote directory. You can request the information for another path by typing it to Path box and pressing Check space button.

Note that the tab is disabled, if the server does not provide the functionality of checking space available (see Protocol tab). As an alternative you can use pre-defined custom command Disk Space Usage (df).
