Hi, im trying to use ftp program, and was just wondering what the general oppinion was, as to the best user friendly ftp program available via portage? preferably with a gui. I have just installed gentoo on my new Intel P4 & Canterwood system and looking to build up my program list... I am currently running Gnome 2.2.3

Thanks for your oppinions in advance

I agree, gftp is a very easy program to use, both in X and in text-mode.

Try Igloo-FTP, it looks and works a lot like FlashFXP on Windows.

I actually bought a copy... after being fed up with constant problems connecting to an xbox, so, hey, I blame microsoft, but... they're certainly not going to fix it. IglooFTP solved all my problems, and doesn't crash.

Don't blame me. I didn't vote for him.
