    Fuck FTP programs

    I downloaded this free SSH Secure file transfer cilent thing, it's great, works just like a ftp but allows me to open a terminal and give unix commands. I just can't believe people pay $100 for a FTP and this thing is free.

                  Have a url to their homepage? My google results are for products that are not free, so they must not be the same product you are talking about.

                    I already posted a URL to their homepage in this thread, and a URL that is a direct download to the program although I am not sure if its the same exact program ;)

                      Oh, you mean http://www.ssh.com/ ? That's where I was. It didn't look like anything was free there.

                          Sorry, they do link to it for free. Right here:
                          http://www.ssh.com/products/ssh/download.cfm

                          And the 2nd USA FTP site is the same as the one you listed above.

                          "This is a non-commercial version of the software, which does not support certificates or PKI."

                          What does this mean?

                          Here is the commercial version for $116:

                            I'm using SSH Secure (FTP client) right now and it looks like it is working great so far. I'm sure the Telnet client works just as
                            good. Thanks for the tip, kenny.

                            [edit]

                            Changed my mind... no skip-all feature. WTF?!


                            Who can recommend me an FTP client that works with SSH2?
