Service providers like sourceforge.net make SCP or SecureFTP mandatory before
you can upload anything to their servers. Since this makes sense, it's becoming
a very popular policy. It would make sense to feature support for one (or both)
of these protocols to in the Target Site plugin.

I've made such a plugin. The eclipse 3 API's are still too unstable to make a
release of this plugin for eclipse 3, but it's straightforward to do once the
API is stable.

I'd like to see this too, to manage my sourceforge web site. Currently I have 
to edit in Eclipse, and then use a batch file with scp commands to transfer 
things.

I looked at the plug-in above, but besides the fact it doesn't work with 
recent 3.0 builds, it uses an LGPL library so it can't be included in Eclipse.

FYI, Target Management / RSE now provides an sftp connection through the jsch library supplied by the Platform. RSE allows browsing and editing remote sites as well as upload/download.

This component is no longer being actively developed. We encourage users to investigate the capabilities of the Eclipse Web Tools Project.
