References: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have to agree with Philip, The windows users here in my office love AbsoluteFTP. It has a simple drag and drop windows and handles multiple accounts in an easy top use manager. The few times I used it myself were easy enough. Seems to handle connections very well and it is able to go in to passive, something I think I remember about native ftp on windows boxes not being able to do.
