GUI FTP clients ?
IgooFTPPro is very nice. See it at http://www.iglooftp.com/unix/
Nice. Polished. I like that. I may just spring for it ($30) after trying it in evaluation mode a bit.
Yes, it's been my favorite also.
gFTP is another one, at http://gftp.seul.org/ KBEAR has this URL, http://kbear.sourceforge.net/
These were already mentioned in my original post.
Whoops, my bad.
Then there is AxY FTP at http://www.wxftp.seul.org/
Also, there is the not so GUI like VFTP, seen at http://www.ayukov.com/nftp/screenshots/index.html
cftp also, at http://ftp.giga.or.at/pub/nih/cftp/
Reading between the lines, I gather this is not really a GUI, but rather a curses-style character interface. Am I right?
Yes, you are correct.
And of course, the swiss army knife. http://mc.linuxinside.com/cgi-bin/dir.cgi
The shell and CLI-based utilities are my Swiss Army Knife. E.g., I generally do site mirroring with "wget".
It's just that sometimes a GUI interface to FTP is more appropriate to the task and I like to have something available (in my Windows days, I used FTP Voyager for these purposes).
Yes, and for remote management of servers, sometimes I use mc to get files in ftp mode as it works well for many needs. Hope I helped. Dee
