Title: Need an FTP Client for Windows 2000
Post by: vanark on August 08, 2008, 09:49:11 PM
I've been using FireFTP, but it caps the upload at 60 kB/s even though I have about 120.  It also frequently loses the connection, causing me to have to upload a few tracks again when I come back.

The latest version of SmartFTP is not compatible with Win2K and neither is FileZilla.  I have an older version of SmartFTP on another Win2K machine and even have the install file, but when I install it on the new machine, it says it is expired and sends me to download a newer version elsewhere.

In case it isn't obvious, free is preferred.  I basically want to be able to upload to the LMA painlessly.

Haven't tried it yet but was recommended by a fellow TS'er: filezilla

The current version of filezilla is unfortunately not compatible with Win2K.

You could still use Filezilla up to version 3.0.11.1

Core FTP

Do you have SP3?

I used to use WS_FTP...found it to be ancient and buggy; switched to Core FTP and liked it a lot more.

Thanks.  This is working well so far.

That looks interesting as well.  May need to give it a try.  The Win2K is fully patched so I should be good to go.

+T's all around.
