Zend Studio & sFTP

[Amgine]

Desperatly need sFTP with Zend Studio, or it gets knocked out of the IDE consideration.

I've been told SSH tunneling is an option. Can someone explain this to me?

Amgine, I mentioned this to Zeev Suraski last year during a call about Studio's release and Michal said it'd be in the next major release, this year.

You can tunnel FTP using SSH (you can tunnel any port). The problem though lies in FTP's weirdness when it comes to passive connections. It'll randomly chose a port for the data connection. A lot of people tunnel the login port and then let the data port stay unencrypted.

Unfortunately, I was not able to find a reasonable solution for this important issue. So, for our shop, Zend Studio no longer meets the requirements for our production IDE. It looks like Eclipse w/PHPEclipse will be the standard environment.

You're so right. Let me try this again:

Amgine, I mentioned this to a person who has influence over the development of Studio last year during a call about Studio's release. I would venture to say that the person who has influence over the development of Studio is in a position to push new features into fruition, so I'm hoping it will go through. A person with influence in marketing Studio said, this year, it'd be in the next major release.

Yeah, I use Dreamweaver now for stuff without FTP access (about 70% of my work). I'm beginning to like it, but I'm not a Windows guy. I'll probably drop it when Studio supports SSH.
