ARCHIVED: In Mac OS X, what secure FTP clients are available?

Note: For a list of SSH and SFTP clients supported by UITS, see At IU, what SSH/SFTP clients are supported and where can I get them?

Secure FTP (SFTP) is a means of transferring files securely using SSH. It is functionally similar to FTP, but FTP clients cannot communicate with SFTP servers. If you need to transfer files with a host that requires an SFTP connection, use one of these clients:

• Cyberduck: Cyberduck is a donationware program available for Mac OS X 10.4 and later.

  If you are an IU student, faculty member, or staff member, you can download Cyberduck from IUware Online at: http://iuware.iu.edu/

• sftp: OpenSSH, the command line SSH suite for Unix, is included in Mac OS X. The sftp program is available in versions 10.1 and later. It has no graphical interface, but if you are familiar with Unix, you can access it from the Mac OS X Terminal. For more information, read the sftp man page.
