Filezilla on a Mac is crippled unless you use the pro version which costs money. Pathfinder is also a paid app nowadays. I used it long ago when it was still free. Not so bad. Though I plan to give Krusader a try.
Thanks on the unison tip. I'm going to try it out. I do most of my recording and class work on the Mac and plan to mirror that on a couple Linux boxes for back up and since I do most of my editing and final work on recording on Linux. It'll be handy to have the mixdowns pushed over to a Linux box automatically.
KDE4 was a good distribution. I ran it on this machine for years and it ran great. Tried KDE 5 when my distro ceased being supported. With 4 gigs of RAM the machine became unusable. Gnome just as bad. Switched to Tinity and it's working well. So KDE 4 apps are just fine with me. In fact I've switched all my machines to Trinity except 1. I only use it as a jukebox and file storage. Even that is pushing it. Before I shut down Akondi I could boot and that was it. The KDE 4 version of Krusader I really liked. KDE 5 version isn't noticeably different.
I think the person who started this thread is using KDE 5. They didn't state what version.

Yes, once you activate SSH on Mac you can use the "fish:" protocol to browse the Mac's filesystem. I use Dolphin for that, not Konqueror. Dolphin can actually be made to work reasonably well on Mac, and as a more specialised application someone might actually at some point make a proper app bundle of it.

It's been ages since I used a "native" application on Mac for this sort of thing and I'm not on my Mac right now, but I see that the one I used instead of FileZilla is still being developed and probably does what you want: https://cyberduck.io/
If all you want is keeping folders synchronised you can also look at the unison synchronisation utility: http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~bcpierce/unison/ (it's also in MacPorts). This is old but works incredibly well and fast.

PathFinder is the usual replacement app that most people go to, IIRC.

If you mean the one in MacPorts: it's the KDE4 version. Not that there's anything wrong with that... Heck, maybe even the KDE4 Dolphin and/or Konqueror versions will do what you want...
