on a slightly higher note meaning i'm not desperate for help here i'm just wondering what everyone's favourite ftp client is i'm running kde 2 and "krusader doesn't seem to work" (hangs every time i log in) so i'm looking around and without knowing the names for things i'm pretty much in the dark any suggestions / preferences?

I'll second the vote for ncftp. Since I discovered it, I no longer use a
gui ftp client.

If you want a KDE2 based FTP application, check out KBear at: http://kbear.sourceforge.net The stable release (v1.2.1) is good, and the CVS version is getting very very good. Don't use the CVS version yet though, as the developer and I are working through some issues with the site manager. The differences between using KBear and just using Konqueror are that with KBear, you have dedicated site management (managing passwords, local/remote directory starting points, log information so that you know exactly what is going on with the remote site, the ability to turn off passive mode FTP on a site by site basis, and the ability to connect to multiple sites at the same time. If I were to pick a Windows FTP client that this application is similar to, it would be AbsoluteFTP from Van Dyke Software... but KBear is on its way to becoming a nicer application than even that one.

Hi: I am running SuSE7.1Pro Edition, KDE2.0.1, and the KBear SuSE rpm for 7.1 has a dependency libdefakes.so.3. Do you know where I find that to download? I don't know about the rest, yet. If this dependency is part of a package, maybe I'll be able to avoid having to search the system for each of the dependencies. Thanks, Tom
And then there is always the ability to use Konqueror as an ftp client in
KDE. Just enter in the address bar the ftp site address, for example
ftp://ftp.suse.com and start browsing the remote site as if it is on your
local file system. You can also drag and drop from one Konq window to
another to initiate file transfers. Works pretty well.

Hi, Avi: Thanks for the reminder. That's why we're using KDE, isn't it. Tom
