Hai guys,
I am using the FileZilla ftp. Simple and very good.
but i hate it so much because of one problem i face.
After few minuts of idle (2 or 3 ) it disconnet the connection. so every time i have to reconnect it using quik connect.
I Put time out to 0 under edit > settings . but no answer.
i am using the latest built.
Pls help. Also is there any other free FTP?
SucksZilla FTP :cry:
http://winscp.net/
Vastly superior.
Tx pana,
Let me check that winscp.
You sure it isn't your FTP server disconnecting you?
Also, are you sending "FTP Keep Alive commands"?
Hai mendhak,
ah, #4 #5 i really did not care about them. so i take it serious and now check.
after disconneting, the last 3 lines are look like this.
Status: Directory listing successful
Response: 421 Idle Timeout (600 seconds): closing control connection.
Error: Disconnected from server
I have uncheck that Keep alive option. that is the default.
so shall i check it. coz it look like a good option to keep alive ?
I've found FileZilla to disconnect intermittently even when it does send Keep-Alive commands.
I tested this out, you're right. It was sending keep alive commands and disconnected me anyways. Not sure why this is happening. I think I'll move on to WinSCP too :D
FileZilla > WinSCP :wave:
WinSCP http://www.pissupoosa.com/forum/images/smilies/motz.gif
WinSCP > FileZilla :wave:
Yes it does that all the time. :(Quote:

Hai,
FileZilla remain for atleast 5 minutes when idle. But WinSCP not more than 1 min. I could not find any settings for the connection under preference.
Thats y i switched back to filezilla.:wave:
Check the "Advanced options" checkbox and then select Connection > Keep alives > Execute dummy protocol commands > Seconds between keep alives > xx seconds > Save...
I'm liking WinSCP, especially the shell integration option which lets me upload files 'faster than usual.'
Say I noticed that when I upload with WinSC it may be loading slower then Filezilla. With Filezilla it uploads at 90 and when using WinSC it uploads at 60 :sick:
Speed depends on protocol mostly. Filezilla defaults to FTP; WinSCP defaults to SFTP which is encrypted and thus slower. If you specify FTP, it'll be as quick as FileZilla.
Ah ok. Thanks PG
What about your disconnecting issue with WinSCP ?
Me? Post #13.
Rob, Where is the "Advanced options" thing in winSCP :confused:Quote:

That must have been during my setup but you can access it from the login window.
I don't even have keep-alive enabled in WinSCP and it never disconnects unless there's a network error.
