    I use WS_FTP at work. Does all that I need it to do.

    I think CuteFTP is best, but I don't know that they offer a free verson... they might.

    I use filezilla, the dreamweaver built in ftp (very rare these days), and ultraedit's ftp.

    I have yet to find a robust linux ftp client - filezilla does the job, but it is lacking the ability to map a directory to the root of a site. That's the one feature I really like in dreamweaver's ftp - you don't have to make sure that you are uploading to the right directory.
