Try WS_FTP Pro. The latest versions can connect to the server via FTP, FTP- SSL, and even SSH. I prefer SSH, since it's completely encrypted, can use compression, etc. All Red Hat boxes that I've set up with SSH work with it. http://www.ipswitch.com/Products/WS_FTP/index.html It does have it's drawbacks, though. Earlier versions, like 6.x, were very solid (but lacked the SSH component), clean setups. Newer versions are starting to get a little hokey, adding somewhat frilly features like thumbnailing (both local and remote), etc. But for the most part, the product is very stable and well written. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
