if your hosting provider 1) is not yourself and 2) requires you to use anything like filezilla, get a new hosting provider

Why?

Unless you're using Linode or something other general purpose VPS which you have installed a Minecraft server onto, having to use anything other than a WebUI to exchange files with the server really strikes me as sketchy. A dedicated can't-run-anything-else Minecraft hosting provider even giving random users SSH access is sketchy enough but requiring you to use it to update the game... that level of not having an IT guy is just a security nightmare waiting to happen.

Guessing by your comment that you've actually rented a general purpose Linux VPS and not gotten suckered into Honest Pete's Discount CreeperHost. In that case, carry on.

Oh please, you didn’t even have to turn the cassette or floppy disc over. You and your luxuries.

FTP Explorer all the way! Preferred that to filezilla... I mean it didn't support sftp but I liked it.
