What ftp clients does opensuse 11.3 come with?
It used to have KFTP but I can’t find it in 11.3.
Depends on what you want the client to do. If only downloads, any web browser is also a ftp client.
For GUI ftp clients, filezilla is one. And of course there is the good old fashioned CLI ftp.
well, I have been using KFTP, so I’d be looking for something similar.

In a recent poll, seven out of ten hard drives preferred Linux.
I never used KFTP, but recently installed FileZilla to upload files to my web site. Try em all, use the one you like best.

i have no idea what KFTP looked like, but if you are using Firefox
just add FireFTP and you are done…it is impossibly easy to
understand the GUI which displays in your browser…
as far as i can tell KFTP was a KDE3 program and no one has bothered
to build a new one for the ‘improved’ KDE4…so, move on…

I use Konqueror as an FTP client. Proabably not the best, but it comes with
KDE4.
I am using both gFTP and FileZilla under 11.3 (32-bit, Lenovo X61 Tablet). I prefer gFTP (FileZilla seems slow; someone told me it has to re-eastablish connection upon every new command) but have found I get on better with some of the many machines at my university with FileZilla. jdw
Using FileZilla for over a year now on both Linux distros and Windows. Has never let me down.
You can use Dolphin as an FTP client then it is truly transparent. It is like the FTP site is part of the file system.
Just add the entry to places

Dolphin - just open the site with ftp:// or sftp:// and drag & drop as
required.
Do keep an eye on the notifications as the jobs drop into background and
it’s easy to think a job has finished when it’s actually still going on.
This caught me big-time in early KDE4 but it’s a lot more obvious now.

I didn’t know Dolphin did FTP, but investigated.
Clicked on the Network icon.
Selected Add Network Folder
Selected FTP > clicked next
Filled in the information
Entered the password and connected.
I didn’t see how to disconnect though.

And midnight commander does, too.

As everyone says dolphin has it and AFAIK nautilus has support for it as well. Also check:
man ftp
konqueror
doplhin
nautilus
mc
Capibara
filezilla

Not absolutely sure about disconnection - may be a simple timeout and I
don’t know the time. I do know that switching to another desktop to work for
a while and then going back to the dolphim desktop to do another drag&drop
makes it log in again (messages in status bar) so presumably it logged out
at some time, although whether the timeout was by the client or host I don’t
know.
I tend to connect just by entering the url ‘ftp://my.site.com’ or, mostly,
I’ve got pre-set links in the ‘Places’ panel for my server and remote hosts
I regularly connect to.
