Securefx is awesome. I use it to make sftp connections to my linux box while in a windows environment.
But, it's not free. Heh.
Anyone know of any good free alterlatives I can use to do sftp connections?

Actually, you make an SSH-connection to your linux box and then proceed to start an ftp-session. It will be secure because the connection is controlled by SSH. All command-line, however.
I always hear good stuff about pUTTY, so you might as well try it.

If your on your winders box and you want a nice GUI app try WinSCP http://winscp.vse.cz/eng/ . Just about the only I don't like about this proggie is that it requries PasswdAuth when I only use RSAAuth. There is another one that is a knockoff or Putty that has PSCP and PSFTP that will do RSAAuth if that floats your boat. http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
Hope this helps

What's this? You can ssh2 in to the box and then start up a ftp connection, which will make the connection with sftp type protocols and stuff?
The main reason that I use sftp is because well, it's secure, and also because I figured out how to make it listen on a non-standard port, which i need to operate onthe network I am in. Could this be done with ftp through a ssh session like you mention?
I do'nt mind that its only command line
