Dual-pane SFTP / FTP / FTPS file manager with transfer queue and folder sync
SFTP File Commander is a Linux alternative to WinSCP: a dual-pane local/remote file manager for SFTP, FTP and explicit FTPS servers.
FEATURES (all really implemented):
- SFTP through the real OpenSSH sftp/ssh client (bundled from Ubuntu's openssh-client package) over a single multiplexed connection; login with an SSH key or a password. Host keys are accepted on first use and stored in the application's own known_hosts file.
- FTP and explicit FTPS (AUTH TLS, protected data channel) with Python ftplib.
- Upload, download, rename, delete (recursive), create folders on both sides.
- Transfer queue with real progress, speed, cancel, retry and resume of partial files (sftp reget/reput, FTP REST/APPE).
- Saved sites in a local sqlite database. Passwords are never stored in plain text: they are saved only if you tick "Remember password", encrypted with a master password (PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256). Key authentication is recommended.
- SSH key generation (ed25519 / RSA-4096 / ECDSA) with the real ssh-keygen, fingerprints and one-click copy of the public key.
- Synchronize: recursive compare of a local and a remote folder (only local, only remote, newer, size differs) and one-click sync up or down.
NOTES: inside the strict snap sandbox the app cannot read your hidden ~/.ssh folder; generate a key in the app or import one from a visible folder. Not affiliated with or endorsed by the WinSCP project or Martin Prikryl.
