The easiest way is to create an IFileID instance using an URL and the 
FileIDFactory:

e.g.

IFileID fileID = FileIDFactory.createFileID(namespace,new 
URL("scp://user@xxxxxxxx/filename.ext"));

Where the target file name is filename.ext.

I will update the javadocs documentation with this bug: 
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=236145

There are further examples of this in the example code.

There is this bug (with scp) that I am looking at now:  
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=234329

Thanks,

Scott
