Even has sftp support for secure transfers.. -David indianajones 06-19-2003, 11:50 AM Thanks I have chosen Smartftp to try surpass 06-19-2003, 11:54 AM Darn! He chose Smart!! :D IGobyTerry 06-19-2003, 12:43 PM I use SmartFTP. My only complaint is that after 90 days it warns you that you haven't updated it, and then once I update it, I still get that warning message. But other than that, it kicks butt.

The FTP command's for newbs. All us l33t people use ncftp now :stickout: -David ENSupport 06-19-2003, 01:33 PM i top that with sftp :P akashik 06-19-2003, 02:31 PM WS_FTP is a great program: http://www.ftpplanet.com/download.htm has both the free version, as well as the 30 day trial of WS_FTP Pro. Not pretty, but a good little workhorse. blue27 06-19-2003, 02:33 PM I'll put my vote in for WS_FTP. I've been using it for quite a while. Easy interface. idologicJeff 06-19-2003, 02:34 PM Whats wrong with the DOS commandline FTP program? ;) bitserve 06-19-2003, 03:02 PM Originally posted by idologicJeff Whats wrong with the DOS commandline FTP program? ;) It doesn't support passive mode. :) thedavid 06-19-2003, 04:12 PM Originally posted by ENSupport i top that with sftp :P I see your sftp and top it with rsync :D -David trustedurl.com 06-20-2003, 09:49 AM why not use winscp2? I know it's not ftp, but it's secure :) anyways, I say ncftp all the way and I raise by $10! akashik 06-20-2003, 10:07 AM How about you guys stick to the topic and offer suggestions on 'freeware ftp programs' mkay? ;) Rich2k 06-20-2003, 10:22 AM WS_FTP Pro 8 compared to WS_FTP LE... WOW.. what a nice bit of software. Less buggy than version 7 too. hamura 06-20-2003, 09:34 PM Originally posted by indianajones Hi I am looking for a freeware FTP program so I can ftp my website to my server from my development machine - win 2000 pro My website is based on IBuySpy Any help appreciated http://www2.biglobe.ne.jp/~sota/ffftp-e.html easy to use and u don't have to install it!! m2dek 06-20-2003, 09:37 PM i recommend ws_ftp. it works and is small and fast. NexDog 06-20-2003, 09:49 PM ws_ftp is a great program. I use the pro version and have done for years. I like it immensely. :) DayGlo 06-20-2003, 10:13 PM In windows i use SmartFTP, OSX i use rbrowser lite and the command line, linux i use ncftp. There are some decent cross platform java ftp clients too, check sourceforge. Knogle 06-20-2003, 10:25 PM I decided to give FileZilla a try.. and I'm very pleased with it so far. I've only used it for a couple of hours though. :) http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/ |
