CrowzNest is a simple tool to automate file uploads for Mac OS X. Select local folders to monitor for file updates called Hot Folders and link a remote FTP folder to it. CrowzNest monitors the Hot Folders continuously for new files or file updates. When an update is detected the file is automatically sent to Captain FTP's Transfer Manager to be uploaded to the remote FTP Site.

What's New:
Status Bar icon now displays program status Blue = Standby, Yellow = transfer or connection error detected, Green = update detected in Hot Folder
Transaction logs - Hot Folders and Destination server
Help Guide added
Edit existing entries (Hot folders)
Single Hot Folder - files may be uploaded to multiple remote servers
Graphical error display (Hot Folder with error is displayed in red, error message is displayed for the selected folder)
Improved GUI Interface
Enhanced update detection engine to transfer updated files with less memory consumption
Improved transaction logs to show status and history of transfers
Bug fixes.

Requirements:
Captain FTP 4.4 or later on Mac OS X 10.3 or higher.
