I had trouble to run WinSCP under Wine, but disabling netapi32.dll got it to work.

In my opinion, Wine compatibility is a kind of quality certification of Windows application versions – and of course, WinSCP is there! :-)

This application is so useful to me and my day job, that I keep a virtual machine with XP on it for the sole purpose of running WinSCP! Thanks so much for a great app.

I meant to add my thanks for WinSCP to my comments above. I have used your program for several years and it has made my work easier.
Thanks again!

WinSCP like...
Just go to tools addons, search --> FireFTP --> Install and then enjoy.
This can be a good alternative to excellent software in WinSCP.

WinSCP alternative in Linux
1. If the address bar is not showing, press the icon that looks like a pencil and piece of paper. This will display the address bar (editable textbox).
2. In the address bar, enter:
sftp://server.com
or sftp://ip_address
.
3. Enter your username and password.

Native Linux, YES, please, wine, red yes, other no thanks.
This would make life a lot better.
No thanks, on running on Wine as I don't allow WinAPI on SECURE Linux OS. May as well run Win and invite the virus and other crap to tag along. No thanks.

Migrating users to Ubuntu
I'm the IT guy for a small office on a univ. campus – supporting two dozen Wintel users who have used a Samba fileserver for years, since before my time, and are very comfortable with WinSCP for remote access to their shared filesystem using home PCs. (This says quite a bit for the quality of WinSCP, by the way.) I have a good chance of introducing some of them to Ubuntu using some old laptops – if I can give them a WinSCP-like GUI for SCP access to the fileserver, hopefully including drag & drop file actions. I don't think anything that's been mentioned is really able to come up to the level of WinSCP in terms of ease of use – I haven't tried some of these in years, and will do so again, but I'd like to encourage you to think about this a bit. A LinSCP is not a ridiculous idea, exactly because WinSCP is so successful. Doesn't have to be identical or complete, just close enough to be familiar – someday I might paste something up with Python if there isn't already a good alternative.

WinSCP's feature set just doesn't have a Lin quivalent
remote file editing using gvim (or another editor)
-- yes, I know I can do this using existing tools, but they are not as responsive
-- nautilus is slow, as is gvim's grafted in editing via scp
-- neither of the above is as forgiving when network connections drop.
run custom commands on files using the gui
-- I like being able to right click on a file and run a custom shell script.
transfer files in the background
I rarely use the synchro feature in WinSCP, but when I do, it's nice to have.
And, yeah, if I wanted to use the command line, I could, and I do often. However, that's not always what I want out of life.
WinSCP is simply better than the Lin graphical SCP/SFTP clients.

Winscp works with Wine OR use sshfs-fuse
More timetaking but better solution: install sshfs-fuse
What I did to install ?
Get fuse-2.7.4.tar.gz and sshfs-fuse-2.2.tar.gz.
Tried installing sshfs-fuse directly, gave the error: "C compiler cannot create executables"
Installed g++ to remove above error: sudo apt-get install g++
Next it asked for fuse, glib-2.0 and gthread-2.0
Installed fuse.
Installed libglib2.0-dev for the other two package requirements as above:
sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev
Had permission problems when mounting using sshfs, so had to use an option:
sudo sshfs user@host: local_folder -o allow_other
ENJOY !!!

Why don't use mc (midnight commander)?
mc is good for that (uses fish protocol).
If you need that: Right (or Left) -> Shell link...
Problem is only with custom ssh port. You can:
1) use a fix (have not tried it): http://midnight-commander.org/ticket/118
2) or add ssh alias in ~/.ssh/config (or /etc/ssh/ssh_config).
SSH alias looks like:
Host mymachinealias Hostname mymachine.lt Port 9022 HostKeyAlias mymachinealias

1. Connect through SSH tunnel
2. Private key authentication (both for the SSH tunnel and the Session)
Does anyone know a Linux application with these features?
Thank you!

a port for linux
it's a quite old topic... but anyway.
Tools like winscp or putty are so good because of Windows OS.
This does not mean Windows is a superior OS. It means, that windows badly lack
of good admin tools and also lack of good admins.
And it's very standardized (users "know" a whatever program should look like a windows app).
Ok, so there's obviously absolutly no need for winscp or putty running on Linux.
Because everything is already here in all distros. But sometimes just in command lines.
Want a ssh session? Just type ssh.
The "problem" comes with GUI front end or gui apps. Because there's so much choice...
What is the good one? You are free to decide.
The argument... "I do not switch because of Photoshop or games or music progams" is understandable... "I do not switch because of winscp" sounds crazy. Just a lack of knowledge or too much lazyness.
I mean WinSCP is a very good app for windows. A perfectly redondant useless app for Linux.
So... the thing about wine and secure. A lack of understanding of both what is linux security and what is WINE.
And about the port.
It can be ported in less than one day without any problem. All libraries are here but VCL wich is ex borland / ex inprise / Codegear. But it's just a question of visuals.
Qt looks like VCL.
Anyway, there's a RAD called LAZARUS, and it can use Borland / whatever.dfm (forms files). It also have a very rich VCL like component palette with a very good compatibility. Porting from C++ to O.O. pascal is straight forward. And i ask my self if the last RAD from CodeGear (XE3 i think) can not compile directly for the linux target. (mac os and i-device i'm sure).
The point is... Why the hell? Another SSH/sftp and so on client? Who really cares in the real linux world.
This program is great because it gives windows users what linux users have for eons.
Keep it running on Windows or browse internet for a client that meets your needs on linux.
Good work anyway.

So ??
What is the good one? You are free to decide. "
You talk a good game but you didn't list anything. You just waved your hands around.
So the epic thing that everyone knows rocks about WinSCP is that you can easily browse to any folder and double click a file and the file will load into your editor of choice based on extension masking. It also runs VERY fast with a low memory footprint.
Can you please direct us to the equivalent Linux tool that is very fast and makes client-side file editing a snap? Something that doesn't require you to click any prompt dialog boxes when you save back to the server. It should be seamless just like WinSCP client-side editing.
Obviously, evangelism is necessary. If you've got a rock solid suggestion to evangelize on Linux, then do it. Look at FileZilla for instance. Everyone evangelizes that tool and so everyone else uses it. Sad fact is that FileZilla is garbage for anyone who wants a streamlined way to edit server-side files locally. It just goes to show that its all in your ability to direct people to the tools.

run WinSCP under Linux
To run WinSCP under Linux (Ubuntu 12.04), follow these steps:
1) sudo apt-get install wine (run this one time only, to get 'wine' in your system, if you haven't it)
2) download "Portable executable" from https://winscp.net/eng/download.php
3) make a folder and put the content of zip file in this folder
4) open a terminal
5) type "sudo su"
6) type "wine WinSCP.exe"
Done! WinSCP will run like in Windows environment!
Best regards.

Re: Krusader
I agree that WinSCP is wonderful and does work under WINE.
In Linux I use Krusader which works great
I've been using WinSCP for a little while now. Download the portable
version. Run in under Wine. It works for me running Linux Ubuntu,

winscp on linux IS important
First, it pairs very well with putty. putty is very good for many reasons. But the most important to me is the fabulous support of digital certificates. I support MANY remote linux systems and we only allow remote access with digital certificates and NOT usernames/passwords.
winscp besides having a very good view of both local and remote files supports the same digital certificates one uses in putty! This makes configuring winscp very easy when using certificates.
Many of the other posters here missed this most important feature. For example, filezilla is a pain in the backside to try and use it for digital certs. I stopped using it on windows LONG ago in leiu of winscp. I will not use it on linux for the same reasons.
So there are no good equivalents of winscp on linux. that is why we need a linux port.

There has to be a simple trick to overcopme this...?
Any help will be apreciated.

You have to guide wine to find the exe. Before launching, change the directory to the one you unpacked the zip to in step 3.

WinSCP Linux
then create the winscp.desktop file in the folder and add the following content:
[Desktop Entry] Version = 1.0 Encoding = UTF-8 Name = WinSCP Type = Application Exec = wine / folder path winscp / WinSCP.exe Terminal = false Icon = // folder path winscp / icon.png Comment = WinSCP Categories = Applications; StartupNotify = true
give the permission to the file and just execute it

I haven't done anything with it, but it got my attention because I have also worked on Delphi VCL projects in my life, apart from being primarily a C# .NET developer (and also a big Linux fan these days).
Might it be possible to port WinSCP to that?

Meanwhile WinSCP is indeed a very well coded tool, totally worth it.
