FTP on 2008
 
Is there an easy to use (non Linux command line) FTP program available for the N800 on the 08 OS? I have lost my VNC ability too on 08 and have not found a solution...Thanks

I'd like an answer to this too.

All I could find in ten minutes of searching was a reference to MaemoFTP, but I haven't found a repository for it and don't know if it's available for OS 2008.

The easiest way (for download) is just use browser:
Code:

ftp://user:pass@hostname.com

Thanks, but I need upload. I tried a browser-driven upload page on my ISP, but the browser file select dialog only allows selecting one file at a time, and I need to upload a large directory.

Same here... I need upload/ download. A compact Filezilla would be great for the tablet. :)

there is an updated version of maemoFTP on its way, been speaking to the developer - there should be a 2008 version available in the next week or so.

This is an edit !!

I just give http://www.net2ftp.com/ a go . it is an online FTP client. It seems to work great it has flash based uploader or java . I just tested the flash uploader to my ftp server and worked flash and easy i uploaded 5 pics Just fine. very clean site no popups .and seems fast . I think you will find this the easy way to ftp from n8X0 or 770

There maybe others out there but this one is clean.

Only problem is, those sites want the username and password on your account.

I think i've seen others with builds of gftp, but you can use mine (on OS2008) if you want. It's pretty much a basic build/compile which i force fullscreen cause its cramped.

Obviously we need a good (more 'maemo-friendly') utility, but for now you can grab this quick build here :

If your english-us grab the smaller of the two gftp debs.

My MicroB seems to forget the password, even after I checked the box. In fact, sometimes even just going into a subdirectory will require me to re-enter the password. Anyone else experience such thing?
