Created attachment 132572 [details] screenshot If you go into the project properties, and go to Run Config, then manage remote connections. When you go to Add a new connection, the dropdown does not allow to select anything other than FTP... So i cannot add a SFTP configuration. Please advise.
Weird, could you please attach IDE log (see [1]), maybe there will be some information. Thanks [1] http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqLogMessagesFile
Also, please try latest stable version of NetBeans (7.3 right now). Thanks.
