FTP, network shares and devices in a panel

FTP client

The FTP Client connects from the drive menu or a typed path such as ftp://user@server/path and shows the server in a panel.

• FTPS with explicit TLS (AUTH TLS) is built in, but FTPS needs the OpenSSL libraries, which current Sally builds do not include yet, so for now the client connects with plain FTP only.
• Unix, Windows IIS, VMS, MVS, IBM i and z/VM listings, all common proxy and firewall types, and compressed transfers (MODE Z).
• Upload and download whole folders in the background. Each operation has its own window with progress and a pause button, and an interrupted transfer reconnects and resumes where the server allows it.
• Change Unix permissions, view remote files, send raw FTP commands, and keep bookmarks for your servers.

Network shares

The Network plugin lists computers and their shares in a panel without freezing it while the network answers, and remembers what it has seen. UNC paths, including long ones over 260 characters, work everywhere a local path does, and Sally can map and disconnect network drives and show your own shared folders (Ctrl+Shift+F9).

Devices and special places

• Portable Devices: browse and copy files on phones, cameras and other devices connected over MTP.
• Folders: the Desktop, Control Panel, Recycle Bin and other Windows shell folders.
• Registry Editor: browse the registry like a folder tree; copy, move, rename and delete keys and values, edit values, search with regular expressions, and export keys.
• Windows Mobile: older Pocket PC and Windows CE devices through ActiveSync.

Stored passwords

Server passwords you choose to save can be protected with a master password and AES encryption, set under Options › Configuration › Security.
