When you maintain a Web Server there is often a requirement to upload (from your local disk) to the web server and download (from the web server) files you are working on?

We discussed this previously with Web Server Access Primer Tutorial as shown below.

We think the Firefox web browser addon called FireFTP mentioned in Firefox and Favourite Plugins Tutorial is pretty much the “bees’ knees”.

Today we look into an alternative Open Source product called FileZilla which may fit the bill as well, and it sits separate to any web browser as a desktop GUI application for Windows or Mac. Today we show an install on Windows for the server and client products, the latter of which you’ll use to upload local files via the (s)ftp protocol.

Of course if your web hosting came with other specific arrangements for uploading, that would be a better course of action to invoke.

FileZilla is a pretty friendly and useful tool, but, as we are in the Firefox web browser so often it is hard to resist using FireFTP. Hope you enjoy today’s tutorial … and what could follow?
