Is there a WinSCP equivalent for Linux? [closed]

Question

If you're using GNOME, you can go to: Places → Connect to Server in Nautilus and choose SSH. If you have an SSH agent running and configured, no password will be asked! (This is the same as sftp://root@servername/directory in Nautilus)

In Konqueror, you can simply type: fish://servername.

Per Mike R: In Ubuntu 14.04 (with Unity) it’s under Files → Connect to Server in the menu or Network → Connect to Server in the sidebar.

FileZilla is available for Linux. If you are using Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install filezilla

Otherwise, you can download it from the FileZilla website.

I use FileZilla and it works fine with SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol). Follow these steps to install it and configure it:

1. Install FileZilla via terminal:

sudo apt-get install filezilla

2. Open the program and go to menu File → Site Manager... or simply type Ctrl + S

3. The following window should appear:

4. Enter the name of your host, select the port (usually 22 for ssh/scp/sftp) and choose SFTP - SSH File Transfer Protocol as the protocol and optionally set the Logon Type to Normal if authentication is needed, then enter your data.

A Xfce/Thunar solution is basically the same as GNOME/Nautilus:

Simply type sftp://yourhost/ in the address line in Thunar (you can get there by Ctrl + L).

(The authorization is identical to ssh/scp, i.e. with proper use of file ~/.ssh/config, keys and ssh-agent, you can achieve decent ease and security: server alias + no passwords asked.)

To run WinSCP under Linux (Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise Pangolin)), follow these steps:

1. Run sudo apt-get install wine (run this one time only, to get 'wine' in your system, if you don’t have it)
2. Download the latest WinSCP portable package https://winscp.net/eng/download.php
3. Make a folder and put the content of the ZIP file in this folder
4. Open a terminal
5. Type wine WinSCP.exe

Done! WinSCP will run like in a Windows environment!

1. gFTP
2. Konqueror's fish kio-slave (just write as file path: ssh://user@server/path

I've used gFTP for that.
