Is there a way to view ftp site password? When i export ftp sites list in xml, i can't see real passwords , but why can't they be like normal passwords?

Hi,

I'd be great if FileZilla (client) could use QoS.

Thanks.

Hi,

It'd be great if FileZilla (client) could be instructed to use bandwidth only if the Internet connection is idle.

Thanks.

Could you please add an option to monitor each IP for the number of failed login attempts.

In the option, once the threshold (user configurable) for consecutived failed logins, over a certain time interval (user configurable), has been reached, the server places the offending IP into an auto block list for a certain amount of time (user configurable). Also please include an override for anonymous accounts. And, please add a user configurable escalation rate and the ability to send a notification (i.e. via email, SMS, pager, etc.).

Thanks.

hi

(i dount really know this should be a bug or feature request...)

i set up filezilla to view/edit a file when double clicking. however this works, but when pressing return key i expected the same action as if i double clicked it... this lead to quite a lot too many files downloaded... please change this! :)

-Dominik Weber

Do not require password on SSH2 connections.

Even when Filezilla uses Pageant to obtain the user's authentication credentials, it still pops up the "Enter Password" dialog. Moreover, you actually have to type something in order to click OK, because the UI does not accept empty passwords.

as seen in WinSCP: one click an a directory within identical trees (local and remote) makes a change of directory local AND remote.

​http://winscp.net/eng/docs/task_navigate#synchronize_browsing ... Synchronize Browsing When you change directory in one file panel and this feature is turned on, WinSCP automatically opens the same directory in an opposite panel. For example if you change the directory in remote panel from /home/mprikryl/public_html to /home/mprikryl/public_html/wiki and directory D:\documents\www is opened in local panel, WinSCP will automatically open local directory D:\documents\www\wiki for you.

You can find this useful together with function Compare directories for manual synchronization. ...

as seen in WS_FTP:

... The DirInfo button opens a window that displays the files and folders in the current folder, as well as the file sizes, and dates and times last edited. ... as in ls -la

HI,

is it possible to do a quick fix for UNC path support on the remote site.

"
pcname\share" should result in "CWD
pcname\share" instead of "cwd drive:/pcname/share".

thanks in advance

Could the developement team include skey/opie support?

Filezilla recognize the server is asking for skey/opie and prompt the user the enter the skey/opie password instead of plain text password.

It would be good if we could set permissions on files instead of just folders. Which is especially useful if wildcards can be used in the filenmes, as this would allow for, for exmaple allowing only readme.txt files to be visible/downloaded from a particular path.

It would be nice if the NSIS script was modified to let the user only install the admin interface, instead of requiring install of the server. This is so you can install the admin on a different computer to do remote admin.

Please include a function that allows you to change the name of a file when uploading it without having to change the source file´s name. This is usefull when the source system does not allow long filenames.

Autohide queue window when there is nothing in the que so that there is more screen space for the interesting bits.

Although it's possible to set a number for concurrent file transmissions, it's impossible to set a number for download and upload queues seperately. I'm on an assymetrical DSL line (>1.5Mbps upstream, 96k upstream), which means I can't upload very quickly but can download pretty much as fast as the FTP server allows me; I would like to be able to download more than one file concurrently, but only upload one file at a time.

It would be great if both the client (and more importantly) the server would support UPnP.

I would like to be able to specify that files/directories matching a certain mask should not be transferred as part of a recursive upload/download.

This would make it possible to upload/download from subversion controlled directory trees without having to do an export first to remove all of the .svn directories.

Many thanks for all your work..

FileZilla Server is great, been running it now for a while in a pretty highload setup. Only feature that i can see that might be helpful is a per user/group ssl setting. This way you could force a user or group to use ssl, without forcing everyone else to use ssl.

Thanks

Many companies uses particular proxies which are not compatible with FileZilla.

Would it be possible to add a "generic" choice of configuration of the proxy? The users could "build" the model of the chains of connection in two text boxes (one for the login and the other for the password) by using parameters such as RemoteID, RemoteHost, FireID, etc...

Ex.: FireID@HostID@RemoteHost, for the login

and FirePwd@HostPwd, for the password

Thanks in advance.

hi,

there should be a "move file" option from the context menu, because always having to drag&drop files is very anoying :)

-Dominik Weber

It would be really nice if FileZilla started supporting this, some other clients do (including Putty which you guys use for the ssh portion of the client).

it would be great for FileZilla to ask for a master password (once per session) to 1) connect to a saved site, 2) modify an existing site or 3) add a new site.

I think something like this would fix some other password requests that I have read, such as showing the actual password versus *. Firefox does something similar for its stored passwords.

Thanks for a great product and considering this feature request!

The 'clear' item in the dropdown menu of Quickconnect does nothing except clearing the inputboxes. I think I seldome need this function.

What I would like it to do is clear recent host list. Can you rework on this?

Hi,

In my company we work with unix servers, and we will often transfert files between their.

I want to replace local brower with another ftp browser.

Thanks

PS : Sorry for my French english

Add a text like "Compiled on May 29, 2005".

Add a link to: ​http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/

Maybe add a fancy frame/border. ;)

Some tooltips for buttons on the toolbar and in the settings dialog would be great.

When you are not connected to a server, then disable or gray out the "Enter Command" feature.

Also maybe add a hotkey for it such as CTRL+R.

Add

.ini .py (python source code)

to the list of files to be transfered in ASCII

Save the actual size of the windows, if I close the window of FileZilla when is maximized it should be remain like that, because when I start again FileZilla it go to it original state.

In others words it not save the change I made to the interface, remove some toolbars, resize the windows and other things, is a little buggy resize the window again...

Rename ".." to "Parent Directory" and use another icon than the folder icon.

If right click on the toolbar then you should get a menu where you can hide the Quickconnect bar.

I know you can do this from "View".

But in other toolbars in Windows you can get a menu to show/hide toolbars.

Under "View" add "Raw Command Line" when click on it, it appears a kind of like "Remote Treeview" but smaller where you can type in a raw command to send to the server.

Size uploaded (mb/gb) Size downloaded (mb/gb) Total (size uploaded + size downloaded)

i use FileZilla on windows, but id love to see a version for linux

how about it

zac

I have more than 100 ftp sites in filezilla "site manager", long list. When i tried to reduce my list, i created folders in "site manager" and replaced part of sites from root to folders, but i found that this decision is very unusable, because my list became larger than was before. Can "site manager" show folder content only if user will ask about this? i mean, if i will click on folder, i will see all folder sites, but not on the start of work with the filezilla / "site manager"

Is there any solution for this problem? thanks.

In Options, you can set several file extensions which should be treated as ASCII files. However, this field is limited to 10 positions. On the system I need to administer, extensions are used longer then 10 characters (for instance, foo.MailReceiver) In the current situation it is not possible to add these types as ASCII.

Please enlarge this field to , say, 255 positions??

It would be really handy if the Transfer Type of a file (ASCII or Binary) would be displayed in the Queue. This might be an optional display setting, of course.

Avalaunch (a homebrew dashboard for modded Xboxes) has a built-in custom FTP-server that has a very nice feature called BOOST mode. Boost mode only works if both the FTP-server and the FTP-client supports it. What boost mode does is basically send a list (from the client to the server) of all files from the transfer-list making new connection/session for each file unessesary, resulting in a much faster overall transfer speed when transfering many small files (like example a complete and large website, or text files, or even loads of MP3 files over a fast connection). Team-Avalaunch the makers of the Avalaunch dashboard also make a FTP-client called QWIX which supports this boost mode.

Team-Avalaunch has made the specifications of this BOOST mode open source to enable others to implement support of it into their FTP servers and clients, found here: ​http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=137059

Team-Ava's website: ​http://www.teamavalaunch.com

From Avalaunch FAQ (a bit old now as more supports it): Q: What is Boost Mode? A: Boost Mode is an improved FTP protocol that is currently only supported with Avalaunch. It can make transfers push the limits of your 100Mb connection, and is especially helpful with transfers that contain a lot of small files."

PS! Some others that supports this boost mode is: SUXX, UnleashX, C-XBOXtool

Currently there are lists of file extensions that should be used in ASCII mode. This has problems as everyone knows, because you have to explicitly make sure that files are in the list, or if they have no extension like many UNIX files, you have to set the transfer mode.

I propose an addition to this system that comes into play when an extension for a file is unknown, or if the file has no extension. FileZilla would try to determine the use of ASCII and non-ASCII character codes within the file being transferred. More on that in a little bit. Once it has detected the type, it would confirm with the user that this is the correct type for the file/extension, and also allow them to add the extension or file name to the list of extensions/filenames.

This system would be easier to implement than you probably think. ASCII files generally use a limited subset of the available combinations for each byte. A good example is that ASCII files *generally* use only things you can see on your keyboard. You would scan the entire file for usages of bytes outside this range, (for example, the ASCII control codes, anything with a decimal value of greater than 127, anything not visible on the keyboard) and if one is detected the file would be labeled as binary for confirmation by the user. Text files are generally significantly smaller than binary files, so to scan a text file would take limited time, and scanning of a binary file would halt quickly because it would soon discover a non-ASCII character. Even so, you could have an option to limit the size of a portion of a file to allow scanning on.

Of course this would bring false positives, and this is why a dialog with a pre-selected button with possible values of ASCII, binary, ASCII [save extension] and binary [save extension] (which I mention above as confirmation from the user) should appear upon detection. The save extension options selection would be determined by whether the file had an extension or not.

Thanks for reading :D

I would love to be able to have multiple remote sites, like tabbed windows. I have to connect to 7 or 8 machines at a time, but those windows clutter the desktop..

Other than that, this is the best ftp client I have used.. Fast reliable and easy to use.

Hi i use FileZilla by some month and i have see that the password is only with Can you put in next release a choise between masked password "*" or not masked password "mypass" I have try this solution in another ftp program and is very very comfortable when i not remember the pass for use it in another program or when a have to change ti.. thanks Johnny

PS: FileZilla is the best ftp software!! I like it!!

The way filezilla detects and handles IBM mainframe ftp servers is extremely useful. However, sometimes when I want to connect to the mainframe I require to access the Unix System Services. Problem is because it detects correctly that the ftp server is on a mainframe it puts brackets around filenames etc. and becomes unusable.

What would be really useful is a client setting to enable override of the detected ftp server type. So I could tell the client to ignore the fact I'm connecting to a mainframe and treat it like a native Unix system.

This will save the password with the user account. This could be a security problem.

I need the ability to choose which connection to use for each site.

example:

always use LAN connection for site A always use DIAL-UP connection for site B

It would also be nice to have client auto-dial for sites that are only accessable via dial up internet connections.

As you probably know FileZilla does not send a "QUIT" command to end a session upon clicking "Disconnect". I'd like a option to activate this.

Thanks

great program!

but i find it very very annoying that my settings for the download queue are NOT saved! so i have to set my settings for "use multiple connections" and "proces queue" manually everytime i launch filezilla.

those settings should be stored both global and for every site.

should not be too hard to implement, i think.

thanks

I'd just like the ability to put the queue and log next to each other. Especially for widescreens it makes sense.

Right now, you have to open Site Manager for quick access to anything other than the Default Site. I want to get rank novices going with FileZilla, and I will give them three or four different sites they need to go to. It would be much easier to say "pick Foo from the Preferred Sites menu" than "Open Site Manager from the File menu, pick Foo from the list on the left, then click 'Connect'". This could easily be done with another option in the Site Manager called "List in Preferred Sites menu".

If you are connected to a server, then my suggestion is that it says "You are connected to a server. Do you really want to close FileZilla?" and then Yes and No button.

I think there should be a "disconnect from server" button on the toolbar.

I think there should be a way to use the Windows default program to view, and possibly edit, files, without redefining all my associations in the options box or resorting to cryptic hacks like "cmd /c". For example, I would use an image editor to edit pictures, a text editor to edit text files, etc. For more info, see my forum post at ​https://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1315941&forum_id=68109

When right click on a remote file, the menu poped out has a "Copy URL to clipboard" function. When chose, it will generate a url in clipboard as: ​ftp://username:password@<ftp server address><current directory><selected file>

This will be very handy when use with a download tool

such as Flashget.

Maybe this request is like 1156460, 485836.

Hi,

There should be a way to limit the log file size limit. I don't want to have to prune it automatically.

Thanks.

for a security encrypted data transfer :)

It seems, that FileZilla on Windows does not remember the previous Window Size and always opens in some too small Window. (This is rather a bug report than a feature request imho.) Thanks!

It would be nice to have an update feature, that updates all changed files in a directory (recursing through subdirectories) without looking at the server files.

Changes should be detected since last update by local file time stamps. This, of course, means to save some log file of previous updates. Thus this reature may require a little bit of work.

To make everything run properly, there must be a file filter to exclude or include files from updating.

Reason: Looking up each file stamp on the server is much slower. For large directories, looking at the local file stamp would speed up things considerably.

Even if you do not want to remember previous updates and stick with the server file stamp, an "update" button for directories using file filters would be a good idea, I think.

Humm i was wondering i know a freind who developes websites and he host people but he said it is really hard when a person has a mac because it is hard to find a good mac FTP program... and Filezilla is easy to use and very realible.

So can you guys make a future version MAC compatible???

Thanks

Would be great if I could invoke Filezilla from command line to do some copy, e. g. like following:

To backup some files: filezilla.exe --copy "MyConnection" /backups/*.* e:\backups\

Or to publish files: filezilla.exe --copy "MyConnection" e:\website\*.* /cygdrive/c/inetpub/wwwroot/

My server is behind a gateway. Client may connect to the server for the WAN and from the LAN. To minimize the bandwidth on the gateway, I want to specify deferent IPs for passive transferts according the client's IP:

• if the client's IP belongs to the LAN mask then the

passive IP address would by the server address

• if the client IP is outside the LAN mask, the IP for

passive transferts would be the gateway WAN address.

Cheers,

Florent Ouchet

Windows firewall (on Server 2003) blocks Filezilla server by default. Autorevision of MS FW rules would be ideal, but a pop-up warning on installation that the FW is enabled and might need to be configured for Filezilla server would be acceptable. CHecking to see if the server is actually blocked before popping the warning unnecessarily would be nice.

Would really like full row select on local and remote fileview. As it is now, it's often a bit hard to double click the ".." folder wich have a really small click-area. So make the full row, even the date, filesize and such, clickable, at least put in a option for that and make it default.

One suggestion here was about "follow me", this is something similar but much simpler. Seen in FlashFXP.

The ability to bookmark folders. The button should be on the remote side. When bookmarking the remote folder is saved with the local (the current folders are written in the fields but you can browse for others), you might also name the bookmark. Then when clicking on a bookmark both remote and local folders change.

The bookmarks are site-specific of course.

Easy deletion and editing of the bookmarks.

The bookmarks should be saved in an XML for easy backup.

In the site manager there should be option for local startup folder and remote startup folder for each site. This is the folders FZ will navigate to when connected.

I have many FTP-sites and all use different folders, and I switch alot between thoose sites. So it's a small hell to do this without the auto-folder-stuf.

If a folder doesn't exist, then the root should be showned.

I would like to be able to connect to a write only directory and post a file there. e.g. folders that are intended for upload only that don't let user see the contents of that folder.

I can do this w/ other ftp tools but Filezilla seems to want to get a directory listing before it will upload a file.

Quote from codesquid from an earlier bug report

MDTM cannot be used to set file timestamps.

Example: MDTM 20050726131800 foobar What does this command do? Set timestamp for the file 'foobar' or get timestamp for the file '20050726131800 foobar'? Due to this conflict, MDTM should only be used to get timestamps.

This is a feature that I badly need and have been assured that many other FTP Servers do implement it.

Surely the ambiguity is only there if a file of that name *does* exist. If not then can FZ not accept the command as a request to update the timestamp?

In addition, the likelyhood of having such a filename must be so remote that the default should be to update file 'foobar' with what is a valid timestamp and only if the file does not exist should FZ try to find a file with name '20050726131800 foobar' and return its timesatamp.

Please could you re-consider, as this feature would make the life of synchronization programs so much simpler and more reliable.

Thanks.

When we create a site where we have read/write access, we should have a preference for "read-only" access if we don't want to risk accidentally modifying files, and we only need read access to the server. In that case, the Filezilla client would deny sending and deleting files even if the server would have otherwise let us.

We have the needs to specify if an user must login using SSL or not in the user account. This is because some backup applications must login in the ftp server without SSL (there are in the LAN). But some travelling users must use SSL support to avoid password capturing. Now if I force the use of SSL, all user must use SSL. Otherwise, if the SSL is not forced, an user can login in port 21 or 990.

This feature make no necessary to install another secure server (i.e. open ssh).

Thanks.

I propose a button/menu check which when selected causes opening a folder on the remote view attempts to open a folder of the same name on the local view and vice-versa. Similarly for moving up the folder structure. Essentially, when the user wants, the remote and local views are locked together to allow quicker navigation when for example managing a website.

It would be useful to have a feature to for Filezilla to note which files in the local folder and its subfolders are not on the remote server or are newer than the remote server copy and then upload just these files, overwriting as necessary.

If I update my website locally, I want the changes to appear on the remote server. Sometimes however, I make changes on the remote server and then need them in my local copy later so that I am hacking on the most up-to-date version.. Therefore the synchronization needs to work both ways.

I would like to have a feature added by at least the new version of filezilla. The feature I would like, as well as others probably would, is to have the ability to search for a file.

Thanks :-)

Would it be possible to use the more common Windows local treeview in FileZilla instead of just the local drives? Imo navigation to files would go a bit faster if e.g. Desktop, My Document and My Network Places are included in the treeview. Now My Computer is the root of the treeview but it would be highly appreciated if Desktop is going to be used as the root.

hi,

I try to work on an ftp server which protect its access using hidden folders. every user has a private directory in "/incoming" but AFAIK, "/incoming" does not have read access to hide the folders name, only traverse access.

when I try to connect to my own directory I get this: filezilla do CWD, but as PWD is not allowed up from "/incoming" it gets an error and then, re-display the "/" directory content

if I have an manual ftp session, I can get a list of the hidden dir without any problem. it seams that the PWD error prevent filezilla to work with the hidden dir

I use proxy authentication with filezilla, it works well but I have to enter my password in the configuration settings.

The feature that I want to have, is a pop-up asking the password for the proxy authentication when the password field in the proxy settings is empty.

Why do I ask for this new feature ?

In my network environnement the users have to change their proxy password every two months for security reasons. When they change it they always forget to change it in Filezilla and lock their account.

Thanks

It would be great if you could include in one of the next releases an option for FileZilla to accept "scripts/batches" for uploads/downloads that could be passed as an command line option.

This is usefull in case of scheduled transfers between PCs of multiple files.

Hello,

I'd love to have the option to prevent the local file list from refreshing (see Chen-hsiu Huang's patch that was first included in FileZilla 2.2.12).

The text editor I use, jEdit, creates temporary files that are backups of files that I've edited but haven't saved. When I do save the original files, the temporary files are removed. The creation and removal of these temporary files causes the local file list to be refreshed every time I save a file. The process of refreshing the local file lists has a duration of roughly two seconds. So when I save a file, I must pause before uploading it. I'd prefer to not have to do this.

Thanks for your time.

Hello,

I'm sure that someone must have requested customizable keyboard shortcuts in the past, but when I searched the feature requests for either "keyboard", "shortcut", or "shortcuts", there were no matches. So, I hereby request customizable keyboard shortcuts. :-)

Thanks for your time.

Hello,

My coworker uses CuteFTP Professional, and that FTP client has one feature that I wish FileZilla had. It's called Lockstep Folder Navigation, and it allows users to "navigate simultaneously through local and remote folder directories that share the same structure. This makes it easier to compare the two when synchronizing content" [1].

So, for example, if one were to open the /images directory in the local file list, the remote /images directory would be opened in the remote file list.

Thanks for your time.

[1] See ​http://www.cuteftp.com/cuteftppro/tour_6.asp#lockstep.

There is no visible indicator of the transfer type: ASCII or BIN.

When creating new users it would be great if we could set a date when the user automaticlly should be removed. We are creating loads of users that should be active for a few weeks only. This feature exists in e.g. Serv-U and is great.

Thanks and keep up the good work!

• manso

The system tray tooltip should display the estimated completion time for all transfers and queue size. This would avoid having to constantly reopen the window to check on the transfer progress. If a transfer error occurs, the icon should change to indicate this.

Hi,

is there a possibility to convert between ANSI and ASCII?

Some FTP-clients do have such options.

greetings

Gert

I would like to be able to view/edit/save a remote file without having to save it locally first.

I have looked for a request for this feature (I can't believe I didn't find one!) and hoped to find this feature already implemented. Other than the absence of this feature, FileZilla is the king!

It would be great if FileZilla could have an option to select a FlashFXP-like layout. Most people really like that layout, but miss that in Filezilla. This could draw even more people to use Filezilla (they even installed it permanently on my university as default FTP program)

It would be great if FileZilla would have standard .deb or .rpm packages for linux. This would make filezilla very attractive for linux! Furthermore it should be advertised more, that Filezilla also works (fine) on linux. Maybe this could also be supported by screenshots of filezilla running on linux (without wine). As far as I can see, Filezilla is better than other FTP clients!

FileZilla Server 0.9.10a

In the Admin Interface, in the list control at the bottom, it shows outstanding connections and a column called Progress, which contains a really big number, that I cannot really read, because it is too many digits consecutively with no delimiter, and they keep changing so I cannot even focus on it trying to count out how many there are from one side to the other.

Adding commas every three digits (or every four, or whatever) would help a lot.

I would like to request the ability to use an existing cert generated by IIS. I have purchased an SSL cert for my web page, and would like to use it with FileZilla server as well. Currently FileZilla generates it's own cert and works great, but i would like to be able to use a cert that will not prompt the users.

Thanks!

I was wanting to know if there is a way to get information by email when a new version of the filezilla server is released so I can keep up to date on this package. Also, I am totally blind and use a screen reader and have found that most of the server interface works good but in the settings dialogs when I errow to one of the settings to change it jumps me directly into that dialog and does not leave me on the tree view so I need to tab back to the treeview to change another setting if that is not the one I want to change. Can you please fix this problem? One good place to go to learn on how to make your software accessible to everyone is ​http://www.blindprogramming.com What compiler do you use to write filezilla?

Great software, easy to use, fast and does the job.

It would be very useful for me if FileZilla client could timestamp the uploaded files with the date and time of the original file, just as it already does with downloaded files.

I frequently update files in several servers, the timestamp is my "version control", but current FileZilla client (2.2.16) leaves the upload time instead of the original file time.

It could be an option like the one already existent: Edit>Settings>File transfer settings> Preserve date/time of downloaded files

Actually, when I saw that one for the first time, expected to see the "uploaded" option next to it.

Thank you for your excelent job.

Hello,

I would like to view my DESKTOP (all folders, shortcuts, and files) from FileZilla > Local Site. Thank you.

Travis Nguyen

Could you add the option in the File Transfer overwrite rules that a file could be overwritten based upon the destination file's size. Eg. Overwrite if destination file is bigger/smaller. Thanks for a great product!!

Hi,

It would be great if there was an option to Overwrite read- only files.

In actual version (2.2.16) the following status message is shown when FileZille tries to Overwrite read-only files:

"Too many retries"

Maybe this option could be at "File already exists Dialog Box" and/or at "File Transfer Settings".

Thanks.

There should be an option where you can hide the dot file. By example, when I list my home directory, the few interesting directory are hard to find in the amount of dot file.

When displaying file sizes (both local and remote) in bytes, could you add commas when then sizes are formatted? E.g., show "1,234,567" rather than "1234567"? In Windows, I believe you can ask the system for the symbol, and display "1.234.567" or "1 234 567" in countries where appropriate.

your software is awesome... but i would love to request a feature that i believe would be very useful....

i believe filezilla should also support rsync protocol... the only reference i found to it is from #755621...

another thing that could be really nice is to have filezilla working on mac os x... its just a thought...

thanks

Currently no support for SSH with private/public key. Only supports password authentication.

Request for documentatin on how to setup SFTP public/private key connections and how to specify a specific public key with a specific connection as opposed to loading a global public key.

Users need a new development on permission function. When we need to give write-read permission only folder or folder and all files in that folder. Filezilla can ask a question "permission to all files or only folder?" Thanks.

Why not use OpenSSH for windows instead of PuTTY for FileZilla's SFTP functionality. OpenSSH uses standard keys rather than a proprietary format that PuTTY pageant uses. Using PuTTY is very cumbersome to setup SFTP public/private key sessions. You have to import the Unix generated key, convert it with puttygen, then load it into pageant, and pageant has to be running in the background. I would think that if Filezilla used OpenSSH instead of PuTTy, that the process could be more streamlined. Site manager could be setup such that a standard public key could be associated with a specific SFTP session. And SFTP functionality in FileZilla could become completely independant of another underlying app running in the background. WSFTP Pro or Vandike's SecureFX allows the ability to setup a key association with a specific SFTP session in their version of "site manager." They also allow for a global key to be delfined to be used with sites that use the same private key.

Using OpenSSH would also probably solve the slow transfer problem associated with PuTTY.

Hi, Could you please incorporate Scheduler and Rsync in the next release...I am sure doing so will give Cuteftp a run for their money..;-)
