Bandwidth control is available to prevent individual users from slowing down the experience for others, and connection IP addresses can be banned if necessary. Rather than investing in specialist hardware, virtually any computer with an internet connection can be turned into an FTP server with a view to hosting a web site for sharing files with others over the internet.īy providing others with the IP address of your computer, they are able to establish a connection and access any files you have specified.
New features: The transfer queue is now stored in an SQLite database.Unlike FTP client software, FTP server software is used to make the files on a particular computer available to others by transforming it into a server. This greatly improves performance and vastly reduces memory consumption while loading/saving the queue Additional improvements to general queue performance and memory consumption The provided Linux binaries are now compiled for Debian Squeeze instead of LennyBugfixes and minor changes: Fixed crash during shutdown of FileZilla Clearing the queue when it was not yet fully populated no longer causes a crash If using ask login type for a site and no username is given, the initial focus is now on the user box in the login dialog Changes New features: The transfer queue is now stored in an SQLite database. One thing really missing from FileZilla though is a scheduler to automatically set transfer times.ĭespite lacking a scheduler, FileZilla is an excellent open source FTP client. The application can guide you when setting up your network and lets you set speed limits in case you don't want to overload your bandwidth.
FileZilla also includes a tool to compare directories in terms of file size or modification time. You can set both local and remote filters for things like images, explorer files or CVS and SVN directories or even create your own. FileZilla is known to be fairly fast, and can also resume downloads and handle very big transfers, I'm talking here higher than 4 GB.
