I have a friend coming around later to takeover an IPB Forum, I use Windows 7 and he uses a MAC.
I need to be able to show him how to update, install patches etc ... which I do with WinSCP - now WinSCP doesn't work with MAC so what other well-proven and simple client like WinSCP would be suitable?

TIA
 
scp <source> <destination>
Ah, if only it were so simple.

To a normal person, the following is just gibberish:

Code:
scp pwhysall@1.2.3.4:/path/to/my/file/there /path/to/my/file/here

Which, presumably, is why the OP is looking for a graphical tool to do the job.

OP: Another vote for Transmit.

Filezilla is good stuff (hey, it can successfully cope with the version numbers that OpenVMS puts on the end of filenames), but it's by techies for techies and isn't as friendly.
 
Cyberduck is worth a look at too, it's my go-to file transfer client
 
from experience sftp support may be not that great particularly where tunnelling is needed. Luckily command line does it all and is pretty easy to master if you are willing.
 
Thanks for suggestions folks, my friend actually had a Windows desktop available in the end so stuck with WinSCP :)
