What do you guys use for FTP? I use gFTP mostly but lately it times out a lot with stalled transfers. I find this is only when uploading a CMS with 300 or so files. I usually use shell access to do most things but not everyone has shell access. So do you know of any other GUI based FTP clients for Linux?

Aye sweet it works fine. Any chance of this going into the repo Jeff?

Uh, this looks a bit immature & old to me (?).

I think gftp should satisfy regular users & power users can stick to ncftp... Or just grab it like you did. :)

I think it's repo worthy, if not CD worthy (it's small too!). It's a little on the immature side, but it doesn't mess up like gFTP always manages to do and about its oldness, its not like the FTP scene has changed very much at all recently :P Quite frankly, I like how light it is with its GTK+ UI that makes it run with next to 0% proc usage even on ancient boxes.
