Our friends at Magnetk have put together a nice deal for Slicehost users interested in SftpDrive. It’s a very handy application for Windows that maps an SSH server as a local drive, creating a network filesystem over SFTP. It will work great with your Slice!

Normally priced at $39, using the coupon code SLICEHOST, you can get a copy for $24. The code works for the first 50 users and there are discounted multi-license options too should you need it for a development team. We’re not receiving any kickbacks for this, it’s just a nifty piece of software, is easy to use and enhances your ability to work with Slices. Thanks again to Jeff at Magnetk for setting this up.

  1. And for Linux users (and wanabe), there is such tool for free!

    Gnome is including this in Gnome VFS (it’s part of Ubuntu). In command-line there is also the sshfs tool : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSHFS

  2. Ahhhh, I wish I knew before shelling out $39. I should read this blog more often.

  3. Is this offer no longer valid?

  4. I have been using Sftp for a few months now and I must say it works very well, I have used other programs like it in the past but this ones seems to work very fast and very reliably.
