Hi I am a student and have no money. Is there a way for me to use FTP without having to buy a program.... .Maybe through terminal or something. If you could help me that would be great. Thanks.
Just type ftp and then the IP for starters, but there is a list of commands used by the program ftp that you'll need te knew. Also remeber to switch between binary and text when appropriate.
There's a couple alternatives... Rbrowser Lite was already mentioned, I believe Captain FTP may be free as well. LiFTP is a decent FTP program, and Fugu can be used for SFTP I think. Just google for any of those and you should be able to find them.

"man ftp" is a good start.

I remember that there is a free ftp client but i don't remember the name serch for one at version tracker. youll find it
I remember now is rbrowser lite needs 10.2
so e.g.
ftp ftp.digiland.it 25
(in which the 25 = port nr)
but a good free alternative is Rbrowser Lite. It's freeware and works ok, get it from versiontracker.
look up FTP
then look over the freeware options. i'll put a vote in for RBrowserLite though. used it for a while before shelling out for Fetch.
