What about sftp? You only need to have ssh running.

What kind of a client do you need to talk to an sftp server?

plus, of course, the sftp binary that comes with the openssh package.

Thanks. I guess the question really is: Can the ftp client that's built in to
programs like dreamweaver, frontpage, nvu, etc. work with an sftp or vsftp
server, or do you need a special client? If my users have to install a special
client, they may as well use WinSCP, but ideally, I can find a secure server
(although I agree with the comment someone made about "secure ftp" being an
oxymoron) that works with the html authoring tool my users already have.

We all may have our opinions of dreamweaver, frontpage, and nvu, but so do my
users, and I support them best if I allow them to use the tool of their
choice.

Ideally, I'd like a solution that works for clients on both OS X and Windows,
as I have users of both flavors.
