A FTP client uses the FTP protocol to connect to an FTP Server to transfer files. Basic text-based FTP clients come with many Operating System s, including Windows , DOS , Linux and Unix . However, many enhanced clients are available typically as Shareware / Freeware for Windows and as Free Software for Unix-like systems. Many modern Web Browser s have built-in FTP clients as well (though, as a rule of thumb, dedicated FTP clients work better for private FTP servers than browsers). Some operating systems including newer versions of Windows, Mac OS X or Linux (e.g. with FUSE ) can mount FTP servers as virtual drives directly within the operating system, which may be easier or more convenient for some users than using a specialized client. Desktop environments such as KDE or GNOME integrate FTP through KIO or GNOME VFS . Some FTP clients can connect to two servers and FXP data between them. Many clients also supports SSL connections between the client and the server. SEE ALSO |
