Re[2]: ACS question -- MIDRANGE-L

Yes, I use WinSCP vs. Filezilla; to each his own.

Since ACS does not need the FTP/SSH connection I use it almost exclusively since it does what's mostly needed. I will admit there are shortcomings in file transfer, downloading, etc. as opposed to the other tools, but the connection is superior since many locations will not allow FTP and/or SSHD to be running on the production systems.

Jim,
I believe you can use either. Some people prefer it to WinSCP

Hmmmm. Is that using FTP or SSH to connect?
