Rep Power: 5   |  Lightweight FTP Client I'm looking out for a lightweight, free FTP client, for some of our students to upload work to an internal FTP server. I've tried Firezilla, however it doesn't seem to want to play with Ranger. Has anyone got any favorites? Thanks |

Rep Power: 32  | Does Explorer/Internet Explorer not support "Folder View" of FTP sites anymore? Quickest way to upload something used to be just ftp://blahblah/myfolder in the address bar... |

Rep Power: 66 | The ftp command is pretty lightweight...  But serious, +1 for winscp (and extra kudos if you can teach them what the other methods in it are, why they matter, and how to use them). |

Rep Power: 12 | Have had problems using FileZilla for SFTP, but CoreFTP lite is OK. Also used LeechFTP on occasion and that also works well. |
