Mike, You most definitely! can use the terminal to do ftp. I do it all the time!
ftp hostname Then type your user name and hit enter. Then your pwd and hit enter. Then use all your standard commands. I'm not gonna list what they do, but I'll give you a list of some of the major ones below, and you can google what they do, if you don't know. lcd cd mkdir rm lcp ls ls -1 chmod chown mv exit get put bin That's just to name some of the most useful commands. You also can do ftp username:password:port@hostname Finally, pasv is another good command worth noting and looking up. Thank you kindly, Christopher-Mark Gilland.

I ask, because I was only able to figure out how to ask FTP from the terminal. Additionally, the trick with mounting the drive on the finder, I have found has only work for some FTP servers. For example my server that I have with host gator won't allow me to mount the FTP server on the finder, and copy files over. I can Peru's the FTP server via the finder, but am unable to copy or paste files that way. This is why I decided to utilize Transmit.

Now I need only open that volume to list all the files and folders on the server. You could also use Terminal if you enjoy the command line.
