What FTP program are you gay webmasters using?

[Hellier]

FTP is a fucking burden. Sync your shit, and use a version control.

I use Filezilla. I also use WinSCP when I want to pretend I'm some kind of internet scientist and wait longer for my shit to authenticate.

hahah.. yup.. filezilla most of the time, winscp when i feel high

 

[jason009]

FileZilla... Free & Open Source.

Yeah I love it, works well for me. Simple and easy to use and free!

 

[CygnusX]

WinSCP

and UltraEdit for editing. Hit save in UltraEdit and WinSCP uploads the file automatically.

I'm no techie but Filezilla always seemed to move slow as shit for me on big ass files. Moved to FTP Voyager and shit got faster, never timed out, always stayed connected to my server if I left it open, and allowed for multi-thread upload/downloads at the same time. Oh. And I use Cyberduck on my Mac.

 

[Your_Pal]

FileZilla and TotalCommander.

 

[Xdreamer]

FlashFXP and TotallCommander FTW ;-)

 

[studlee46]

FlashFXP FTDub

 

[SUP3RNOVA]

coda

 

[sumohax0r]

FlashFXP for Windows // I also export all connection settings to a dropbox folder so I can always get to it.

Transmit for OSX

 

[vinnythejinny]

FileZilla all day any day. I used to use CuteFTP back in early 2000.

 

[Netphase]

FlashFXP and TotallCommander FTW ;-)

FlashFXP FTDub

FlashFXP for Windows

Does FlashFXP allow more than 1 file to be transferred at the same time yet?

I used it in the past and that made it really slow compared to FileZilla if you were uploading many small files at once.

 

[Broland]

Buy a mac, use cyberduck

 

[dmnEPC]

Anyone ever try FileZilla? I hear @ 1 point they represented some pretty big brands

i don't know where you heard that but it is false. don't spread (mis)information before confirming it. i'm running latest filezilla (3.5.3) and just checked. its stored plaintext.

That's funny since I just opened up the xml file in my Filezilla folder with Excel and it lists my user name, remote folder, local folder, ip, etc.

In the password column, all of the sites are in the format:
1.1507E+23


When I opened up the file using dreamweaver it showed: 015073010021041083014182

So as far as I can tell this isn't (mis)information.

 

[wiredniko]

winSCP is more light weight.

FileZilla is what I use for linux, or straight up terminal commands.

That's just for obscuring the password, and was set on by default in v2.x.
The obfuscation was set to off by default in v3.

The poster botg is the developer:
FileZilla Forums • View topic - Filezilla password plaintext disaster
His response has always been: 'don't save passwords'.

Here's an old thread where he tries to explain why Filezilla doesn't even try to protect passwords:

cyberduck

 

[Red_Virus]

FlaxhFXP does the job for me.
