# sftp has no way to be asked for one. Refuse, and say what to do instead --
# a bare "permission denied" from a camera that has never been touched is the
# kind of thing people re-flash over.
#
# The address, not the hostname: a hostname only the camera itself resolves
# made http://$(hostname)/ go nowhere when pasted into a browser (#2346).
# SSH_CONNECTION's third field is the address the client actually reached;
# hostname stays as the no-connection fallback. Brackets on the URL only --
# a browser needs them around an IPv6 literal, ssh refuses them.
