    Hail All,

    Now that NiftyTelnet is valid to use in the US, I have a nice ssh clien for the Mac. Does anyone know of a secure FTP client that works with the Macintosh? The CS department here doesn't allow standard FTP, so it means I can't transfer files back and forth from my CS account without going via a third-party Linux box, which has gotten frustrating. So, if anyone knows of one, I'd appreciate it.

    I just got a pair of spam newsletters from the Anarchy/Interarchy folks about version 5.0, which should be entering beta testing very soon. The blurb is:

    <blockquote>
    As I mentioned last time 5.0 will have SSH. FTP Disks, mirroring and
    the manual interface will all be able to be used over a secure SSH
    connection. 5.0 will also be a FATCarbon build, which means there
    will be one version that will run natively on all versions of Mac OS
    (including X).
    </blockquote>

    The FTP disks thing is pretty neat sounding. It will allow you to use the Finder with FTP sites. The site will just look like a disk (ala iDisk). All finder functions will supposedly be supported. You can even use it offline (it caches things locally) and the next time the network is up, it does a sync.

    I was a kangaroo-carrying member through 3.x, but was a little annoyed at the upgrade fee for 4.x and dropped them. Maybe I'll pick it back up again now.... hmmm....

    I'll definitely look into it. Thanks for the info.

    Re: SFTP on MacOS?

    What about just using scp in NiftyTelnet?

    I knew NiftyTelnet could do SCP but I never bothered to stop and think if that it meant it did SFTP too.

    Leave it to a Linux user to surprise us all! Nice work Cauldyth 8)
