gFTP als Linux-Alternative zu FileZilla Pro

Aktualisiert am

Unser Fazit

gFTP can serve as a functional replacement for FileZilla Pro for users who need standard FTP, FTPS and SFTP transfers on Linux. It offers a graphical GTK+ interface, multithreaded transfers, site bookmarks and basic file comparison, which covers most day‑to‑day file‑transfer tasks. However, it lacks the commercial cloud‑storage integrations and some of the polished UI features of FileZilla Pro, so power users who rely on those extras may find it insufficient.

Ihre FileZilla Pro-Dateien öffnen

gFTP does not use a proprietary project file format, so there is no direct way to import FileZilla Pro site manager files. You can manually recreate the server entries in gFTP; the information needed (host, port, protocol, credentials) is straightforward to copy.

Von FileZilla Pro zu gFTP wechseln – Schritt für Schritt

  1. Install gFTP from your distribution's package manager (e.g., apt install gftp).
  2. Open gFTP and create a new site entry for each server you used in FileZilla Pro.
  3. Enter the same host, port, protocol (FTP/FTPS/SFTP) and authentication details.
  4. If you used cloud storage in FileZilla Pro, set up separate tools for those services.
  5. Test each connection and adjust any passive/active mode settings as needed.
  6. Optionally, export your gFTP bookmarks for backup (File → Export).

Häufige Fragen

Can gFTP handle large batch transfers as smoothly as FileZilla Pro?

Yes, gFTP uses multithreaded transfers, but it lacks some of the queue‑management features that make large batch jobs easier in FileZilla Pro.

Is there any way to add cloud‑storage support to gFTP?

Not directly; you would need separate command‑line tools or mount the cloud storage as a local filesystem.

Does gFTP provide secure password storage?

Passwords are stored in plain text within the configuration file, so you should protect the file with appropriate filesystem permissions.
