CentOS - Jul 2009 - sFTP (client) RPM for CentOS 5.3 (32 bit) and/or putty-tools

I installed gFTP but apparently it does not handle the sFTP protocol.
I also installed the FireFTP Add On for the Firefox browser, but when
I tried to connect to the server, it says that I need putty-tools. I
have the rpmforge and epel  repositories configured but yum did not
find putty-tools. Is there an RPM for a client program for gFTP or
putty-tools? If so, in which repository?    TIA!

1443 packages excluded due to repository priority protections
Setting up Install Process
Parsing package install arguments
No package putty-tools available.
Nothing to do

The sftp program is a standard part of the openssh package.

Yes, it does, it's called SSH2 in gftp, but it's actually calling for
the sftp subsystem.

aah well, have you tried konqurer with one tab opened in local folder
and second opened with fish://user at remote/remote-path?

and it supports tons of protocols such as smb://, man:// info:// and what not..
