Extracting files on the server?

Is there any way to extract archieves on the remote server without having to extract them locally and slowly uploading them one by one (or however many worker threads I can put to it)?

I believe filezilla can do this, I would think that Smartftp as a professional FTP software should be able to as well somehow.

No this is not possible with the FTP protocol unless the server offers some custom commands (e.g. SITE xxx). Filezilla cannot do this as far as I know.

Hmmm ok, I could swear I was told it had. Maybe incorporate shell login/access into smartftp to use commands on files directly in fileftp?

When I bought this a few months ago, this was the whole reason for buying it.
I had found a client that would do this, but can't remember which one it was.

Thanks,

BTW: I use ssh to connect ( port 22 ) ( or my port ...lol )

Just remembered ! It was on my linux box....lol

You can do this with the Terminal in SmartFTP: Menu->New Terminal.
