Default FTP Client recommendations

I am running SUSE 10 with the Gnome desktop and I am needing a simple
file transfer client with drag and drop graphical interface for updating
web pages. At the moment I am using CoffeeCup FTP on a windoze box and I
am looking for something similar. The client must also support multiple
FTP servers.

A web search brings up plenty of command line clients but it is just so
much easier keeping track of what I am doing with a graphical interface.

Thank You

Just open ftp://user@host in konqueror , and it will look as any other folder
in KDE , and you can drag&drop as you like.

Then it's 1000 more options, not as in windows where this must be installed as extras.

Even ftp://user@host is half broken in windows IE, while ftp://userassword@host mostly
works even there.

Second that - wish they made it a default install.

Hello Andrew,

I run SUSE for years now and imho Nautilus and/or Konqueror are the best
ftp clients with drag and drop interface.

have fun, Arie
