Need to transfer files securely from your Mac? All you really need is Safari and the web transfer interface on a Serv-U Server. That lets anyone sign on with a web browser to upload and download files. In addition, Serv-U supports non-Safari browsers, built-in file transfer utilities, and third-party FTP clients on Mac OS…
I have a Main Poller with the VNQM module working in conjunction with the FTP Server application "freeFTPd".

Don't Be a Sitting Duck! Script kiddies test the defenses of FTP servers and SFTP servers (using SSH) every minute of every day.
