Duping ftp

21:06 Monday 8 Jan 07

My Filezilla has 79 sites in the Site Manager. I have no idea how Cyberduck will look with that many but I aim to find out. And I hit the same problem I had when I was looking at alternatives for Filezilla – there is no easy way to export/import settings. Is there a standard I’ve missed? Is there a magical tool which will transform my xml file for me?
Maybe this is why people stick with their ftp program – it’s such a PITA to change. It sure as hell is with mine. Is there an ftp program which has importers? If there was then you’d be more likely to try it surely. But what is the market for ftp clients? Not worth an importer it seems…

    • That’s EXACTLY why I still use FileZilla. Admittedly I’ve not really WANTED to change it, but then I only have a paltry 19 sites in my site manager… ;-)

    • I use Transmit. It has importers. I think it was worth the small shareware fee and Panic do some other nice apps for the Mac as well.

    • I couldn’t get Transmit to import from Cyberduck. Yummy FTP did. Transmit wouldn’t import from Yummy either. If anyone has a solution, I’d love to hear also.

    • I managed to get Transmit to import from Cyberduck, but ’twas a while ago now and I don’t remember quite how I did it!
