The Little Guy 6 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I really like Notepad++. Not only does it have FTP, but it has the built in editor, and will upload your file every time you save it. Link to post Share on other sites
sel_888 0 Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 WS_FTP here too, been using it for years. Â *whew*! Finally someone mentioned WS. I have been using it for years and years. I am using WS_FTP PRO now, and it works well with Vista 64. I am on satellite internet (Full time RV'er) which can be very unreliable (lost packets sporadicly) and Dreamweaver's FTP and others seem to hiccup on it, whereas WS can take it in stride. A very simple and primitive-looking program, but it works like a hot-dam and does EXACTLY what I need. Â I know I need to change Satellites to Mex5, but I need to do some creative conversations with my provider, and just too lazy to get around to it (and I also need to travel about 1000 miles to make the phone call (it needs to happen in the USA, and I am not there... long story... another time) Â -Sel Link to post Share on other sites

neylitalo 0 Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 keeb@urmom:# ftp myhost.org  ^ best ftp client in the world.  keeB, you might like yafc - it's got the simplicity of the netkit ftp, and it has some few extra features like tab-completion, bookmarks, and directory listing caches. (The caches can bite you if you're using another method of modifying the files at the same time, but the command `cache -c` will clear them out.) Link to post Share on other sites

traknet 0 Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I have used AceFTP for years and it works well. Â Internet Explorer is cumbersome but is useful if you are away from home eg. internet cafe. Link to post Share on other sites

nubby 0 Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 For Ubuntu users I recommend you using gFTP. It is very user friendly, fast, and well I just love it compared to some others. Link to post Share on other sites
corbin 0 Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 I've only used SVN on two sites.... (Well 1 project, 2 sites.) I love using SVN on it though, because it's thousands of files, so FTP'ing would be kind of bleh.   Anyway, I use Filezilla as a client, and usually either Filezilla or Cerberus as a server. (Never setup a FTP server for public use, so I've never bothered to look into FTP servs much.)

alexweber15 0 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 FileZilla FTW!   the only worthy successor to WS_FTP  although this is getting kind of tiresome: Welcome to version 3.x Please report any bugs you might encounter i like that it updates frequently though  i worked for a couple months with a mac developer and he was obsessed with one that hasn't been listed yet: Transmit  must be good.. but then again he's a mac user Link to post Share on other sites
Maq 29 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 FileZilla is my favorite FTP Client. But i just hate that sometimes connection lost and i have to connect all over again...  I've noticed that too. Not sure if there's a setting on FileZilla or a server setting to disconnect you after a certain period of time...
