Best ftp client

Greetings
I'm looking for recommendations about the best, most reliable, freeware ftp client available for OSX.
I need something that's fairly configurable.
Any suggestions?
peace
Greg

Greg--
You could try Cyberduck. Or there's RBrowser, which does FTP in its free (unlicensed) version.
With OSX, there's always the command line as well. There's an ftp client called, strangely enough, ftp. Type man ftp in the Terminal application to find out more. Also, curl will do ftp. That's very handy to use in shell scripts.
What you end up using will kind of depend on what you mean by "fairly configurable" and what kinds of configuration things you need to be able to do. Good places to start searching are MacUpdate or VersionTracker.

  • What's the best FTP server software for Mac OS X Server?

    What's the best FTP server software for Mac OS X Server?
    We have looked at a few different applications out there (Rumpus, CrushFTP, etc...) and are wondering what the community feels.
    Apples built -in isn't robust enough. We do need some advanced features (reporting, SFTP, a web interface would be nice etc...).
    Opinions?

    Hi
    For me it has to be RumpusFTP Server:
    http://www.maxum.com/Rumpus/
    It has a secure web interface - no need to open ports 20, 21. No need for dedicated FTP client software for uploading and downloading. Supports the most commonly used browsers. Multi-platform support and can be installed on a standard client OS.

  • Best FTP for iWeb produced websites after Mobile Me?

    best FTP for iWeb produced websites after Mobile Me?

    If you're asking about an FTP client there are several very good FTP clients.  YummyFTP and Transmit are two commercial clients that provide two finder like windows of your local website folder and the online site folder.  That makes it very easy to drag and drop or do automatic syncs.
    Cyberduck is a free FTP client and provides a Finder like window to the online folder.  You can open the local Finder window for the web site for dropping and dragging. It will also do an automatic sync.
    As for hosting sites IMO the two best are HostExcellence.com and ixwebhosting.  They are owned by the same company and operate essentially the same.  The only difference is that HostExcellence has a free customer support phone line for customers outside the US. Both offer excellent ear to ear customer support.

  • FTP client Default Data Connection Ports

    I'm developing a simple FTP client from the socket level. The only documents I am referring are J2SDK API and RFC 959. For the control connection I am ok, but for the data connection is not. According to the RFC 959 : "The user-process default data port is the same as the control connection port". The control connection port is used by my FTP command connection while connected to the FTP server, so how can I "listen" to the same port before I send the "RETR" command to the server ?
    Pls give me a hint , Thanks
    Samuel

    The way I read it is that the client opens the control connection by connecting to the server control port (usually 21) from a random port. The client also listens on its own port 21. The server will eventually establish a connection from a random port to the client port 21. I may be wrong though. The best way, IMHO, to proceed, is to use a network monitor such as TCPDUMP or WINDUMP and see what other FTP clients/servers do. I also know for a fact that there are open source FTP clients and servers, even in Java.

  • Ftp clients

    Any opinions on which ftp client has the best "syncronizing" (i.e. only uploading new or updated files and ignoring unchanged files?)
    I'm using Transmit right now, and it seems to have that sort of functionality, but I have occasional problems. Are there any other ftp clients that people can recommend?

    The only issue I found wile using Cute FTP was that when I wanted to Edit a file directly on the server and Save changes it would not allow me to do so. Instead, it would save the temporary file it downloaded while editing.
    Anyone else experience this while using Cute FTP? Or is it me just getting used to my iMac.
    Yeah, I just switched over from the darkside but I love it.

  • Issue with Ftp Client / Server using Sockets

    I have developed a Ftp Client and a Ftp Server. The client Connects to the Ftp Server and sends files to the ftp server. It is a multi threaded server and can have multiple clients connecting to it.
    If a client goes down...the server waits till the client comes up
    Similarly the client waits if a server goes down and reconnects when the server is again up and running
    i am having a strange issue here. When two clients go down and reconnect to the server...They take a long time to connect and transferring of files takes a long time...
    Other wise in all other scenarios the duo work properly.
    Any feedback and suggestion about this strange issue from all you java gurus out there will be deeply appreciated.
    Here is the client code

    Please note that this is not an FTP client and server. FTP is defined by a standard IETF protocol and this isn't it.
    Then, move the following lines:
    din=new DataInputStream(ClientSoc.getInputStream());
    dout=new DataOutputStream(ClientSoc.getOutputStream());
    System.out.println("FTP Client Connected ...");
    System.out.println("External IP of Client ..." + ClientSoc.getInetAddress());
    //System.out.println("FTP Client Connected ..."+ClientSoc.getRemoteSocketAddress());from the constructor into the run() method. i.e. don't do anything with the socket in the thread which handles the accept().

  • FTP client is not working in active mode

    Hi,
    I have a ftp issue trying to download iweb files.
    My provider enabled me a ftp access.
    I tried to connect to it with transmit or rbrowser ftp client (passive mode disabled). The connection works well but i can not retrieve the list of files.
    However using my PC and filezilla ftp client in active mode, the connection did work properly.
    Any idea to help make this connection work on my mac ?
    Thanks

    Perhaps this will help...
    http://slacksite.com/other/ftp.html
    "The main problem with active mode FTP actually falls on the client side. The FTP client doesn't make the actual connection to the data port of the server--it simply tells the server what port it is listening on and the server connects back to the specified port on the client. From the client side firewall this appears to be an outside system initiating a connection to an internal client--something that is usually blocked."

  • How can FTP users access my NAS system via FTP client?

    I recently purchased a 2 bay, 4TB Buffalo Link Station DUO in order to solve some FTP issues.  I have about 50 users outside my LAN that need to connect drop files on my NAS, however nobody seems able to connect via FTP client.  If they login using the Web Access Dynamic DNS address they can read and write via their web browser, but it's clunky and slow.
    My NAS system has been given the IP adress of 192.168.1.254 which seem to me that it's a local IP adress, not a public/static IP. Do I need to manually assign an IP adress to my NAS system in order fot users to log into that specific IP and go directly to the shared folders on the NAS system?
    Thanks in advance!

    Your NAS is getting that IP because it is behind your Router, which is the normal way to use it and as it should be.
    You can not ASSIGN a public IP you your NAS. Only your ISP can do that and usually that incures an extra cost for more than 1 Public IP address. Usually included with a Business account and most of the time only available with a Business account. ISP do not want home owners running FTP or Mail servers on a residential acounts.
    As noted you have to forward the noraml FTP port, port 21, in your Router to the IP of the NAS. Since you already have that port forwarded to your Mac, which I have no idea why you did that, you have to either change that port forwarding to the NAS IP or make the FTP server on the NAS respond to some other port and forward that on the router to the IP of the NAS. The to access the NAS FTP server you have to enter the piblic IP address of your router followed with a :and port #. XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:22 or whatever port # you assign to the FTP server on the NAS.

  • I can't update iWeb. Error message:  "The disk may be damaged or full, or you may not have sufficient access privileges." I had received a response that gave me the "best" FTP, it was one that gave each iweb user their own support person. Need info again

    I keep getting an error message, sometimes the beginning part changes but it always ends with the quote above. I haven't had the time to work ont his in a few weeks, but weeks ago I got a response that indicated the "best" FTP to use, because they give each iweb user their own support person with whom the user can speal everytime, instead of getting as new person each call/email.
    I am currently with 1&1.co.uk, which was recomnmended to me by a friend who is much more website intelligent than me: he designs websites for a living. They may very well be very good for someone who knows what they are doing, but they are not so good for me or for Apple users. Since I am paying every month for not being able to get updates published, I would be willing to pay for an FTP which would give me, a novice, resal Apple support. I also do not want to have to completely redesign my website or loose my website address, so I want to transfer the whole critter to a new FTP.
    Thanks

  • Looking for a specific feature in an FTP Client

    Hello!
    I am looking for a "simple" feature in any FTP client for OS X.
    I have tried Fetch, Transmit, CyberDuck and Interarchy 7.x and none had the ability to throttle uploads/downloads. I work with a limited bandwidth and sometimes have to download files (or upload) in the background but at a very slow speed (because the peer has a poor connection).
    None of these nice (and they are nice!) ftp programs can do this. I have to either use wget via the command line (wget --limit-rate=xx) or use Total Commander for Windows inside a Parallels Virtual Machine.
    Does anybody know about a Mac FTP client that can throttle and enqueue items easily?
    Thanks in advance!

    Look at "lftp". It as about a zillion parameters that can be set. One of them is "net:limit-total-rate"
    Quoted from the Docs....
    limit transfer rate of all connections in sum. 0 means unlimited. You can specify two numbers separated by colon to limit download and upload rate separately. Note that sockets have receive buffers on them, this can lead to network link load higher than this rate limit just after transfer beginning. You can try to set net:socket-buffer to relatively small value to avoid this.
    Find lftp here lftp.yar.ru It is also in thr Fink archive. http://fink.sourceforge.net/

  • FTP Clients on E72: can't get any to work

    Hello again.
    So, I've been trying to get FTP Client functionality on my Nokia E72. I guess I'm just doing something wrong, but I cannot figure it out.
    I tried:
    * SIC! FTP (native Symbian App)
    * PaderSyncFTP (Java)
    * MobyExplorer (Java)
    None of the applications work on my E72. They do work however (with the same SIM card) on my Nokia 6120 classic.
    The applications seemingly try to connect on the E72, however it never actually initiates a packet data connection at all. As if there wouldn't be an application trying to access the Internet.. I also tried to set up WLAN as my primary access point. Works for everything else, but not for those FTP clients.
    I tried several FTP servers on different ports (21, 666, 667). All work on 6120 classic, none work on E72. Also tried to switch from passive to active mode to no avail.
    Funny thing is: When I use my PuTTY SSH Client on E72 to just probe an FTP servers port, that works! I can see the connection attempt in my FTP Servers logfile, and I can see the Server responding in PuTTY!! But with the actual FTP clients i never even get out into the network, wether I try to use WLAN or 3.5G..
    I'm lost. Everything else works. SSH2 using PuTTY works, Skype works, webbrowsing works.
    What could be prohibiting all those FTP clients from initiating a connection?! For MobyExplorer I even tried all of its four "connection modes" that they have for "buggy firmwares". Doesn't make a difference at all.
    Also: Those apps never ask for an Access Point on the E72, even if the AP is configured to do so.
    I have no idea what to do...  Any advice would be appreciated! Maybe it's just some strange configuration issue..
    Thanks.

  • Trying to install InDesign (Adobe) but when I double click the Install it calls up FTP Client Ultimate?? What is the install program for MACBook Pro?

    I'm new to MAC, that said I really haven't had much trouble with it except today I am trying to install Adobe InDesgin but it keeps trying to use FTP Client Ultimate  to do so.. What is the installer that it should be using? I was hoping it would auto start and install but no such luck..

    Thanks, I have posted to Adobe regarding their program, but my question here ( I'm new to Mac world) is what install program would normally install this? For some reason my MacBook pro keeps calling on FTP Client Ultimate to do the install and clearly that's not the right program to install a program..
    I Love mu Mac, but getting help is a it frustrating...
    i'm sure Apple has a program similar to InDesign, but have no idea what it would be..

  • Uploading iWeb site to personal domain via FTP client (NOT .MAC)

    Hello,
    I want to upload my iweb created website to my personal domain, in other words I do not want my domain to point to my .mac address.
    I am downloading Cyberduck as my FTP client. Will I just send my whole "site" folder to my public folder at my personal domain? Will it be in the right order? How will I update each day? (Can I set up iWeb so that when I click "publish" it will update my personal domain?)
    I was planning on using some wordpress plugins to modify my site. Will this work? I am totally lost, I had no idea I needed so much background info to blog outside of .mac! I guess I just want to design with iweb, and be able to use all the tools of my AN Hosting and wordpress.
    Thanks for your help in advance!

    Will I just send my whole "site" folder to my public folder at my personal domain?
    You send the folder created by iWeb which has the same name as you gave your site inside the iWeb app, plus the index.html file which iWeb created alongside that folder.
    How will I update each day?
    By publishing again to a folder and uploading again via ftp.
    (Can I set up iWeb so that when I click "publish" it will update my personal domain?)
    No. If iWeb could do that you would not need an ftp program to start with.
    I was planning on using some wordpress plugins to modify my site.
    No idea, but generally speaking modifying iWeb to add stuff requires manual editing of the html after publishing and redoing it every time you republish.
