Gftp.
KBear is a mess, IMO... though I know people who say that it is "an innovation in FTP program layout" and mean that as a good thing.
But since you use SuSE 9.2 and probably use KDE, Kasablanca is probably better integrated.

if u just meant to ask for a GUI, I'd say gFTP on a traditional side and kbear or ftpcube on a "just-a-bit-more-userfrndly" side.....
well if u meant to ask abt "good" thing then I am at loss I miss the feel of something like cuteftppro in linux.

Heyyy do I needa say - ncftp rocx

Thats one thing that bugs me. I am not a native English speaker and when people abbreviate words in their posts, it makes it difficult to understand what they are talking about. Thanks theYinYeti for pointing this out.

nautilus (`explorer.exe' for gnome) supports `mounting' ftp servers (both anon. and with login), and browsing them just as you would your local fs. It also supports sftp and [opt. secure] webDAV.

Oops! my bad. I am extremely sorry to have overlooked this point. Sorry did not realised about non-English users.
FYI, words i abbreviated were:
abt = about,
u = you,
GUI = Graphical User Interface.
needa = need to
rocx = rocks
--
sincerest apologies once again.

PS: Thanking You for putting up with me

Thank You

Thank you all for the great feedback. So far, I am pretty satisfied with kftp, though I plan on looking at the others mentioned.

Best Regards,

Randy.

I would say KBear gets the job done and has very user friendly interface too
