Netscape actually works for this...  It can show you ftp sites and local
file listings...

It does not upload stuff, at least I've not ever done that...  But you
can use ncftp to do the uploads and netscape to view what you have up
there.

Gnome has an FTP front end to X.. I have troubble using it because of I
have to work through a proxy and it does not seem to do that right, but
it looks like it might be what you are looking for.  It's called "gftp"
I beleive..
