I wonder if the author tried using their file manager to connect? I haven't needed any kind of external file management system since switching to Linux, Dolphin just handles everything (sftp, ftp, samba, etc) for me natively in the same window.
- hnuser123456 6mo agoIronically, Microsoft recently (few years ago) removed the FTP client from Explorer.
- QuantumNomad_ 6mo agoMy favorite way to connect to FTP servers on Linux was with lftp from the command line. I say was because I don’t really use FTP anymore. I do use Linux still though. lftp is available in every package manager I know. Man page: https://linux.die.net/man/1/lftp https://linux.die.net/man/1/lftp Actually lftp supports a lot of different protocols but I only ever used it for FTP, FTPS and SFTP.
