Tom, yeah you're right, I completely forgot about WinSCP, which is also written by the people who wrote puTTY. However Samba + Windows networked drives are better in that you can treat it as a regular drive. So, if you write code on your Windows workstation ( like I do ) Samba is the way to go. Samba's downside is that it requires the user to understand how to use / set it up. It's well worth reading up on IMHO but we all have our own priorities.
