...another rox user here. It just works, and it works well. It does take a few days (or even weeks) to get comfortable with the way it works and feels, though.
you know, even though i suggested rox, i cant part with nautilus because it will show my network connections under the 'computer' tab. If rox could do that, i would not need nautilus any more.
unless, someone knows a way..........

Rep:
Two others that you may wish to try out:
tuxcmd - Tux Commander. A traditional dual pane "commander" style file manager with nice integrated FTP support, device mounting and many more goodies. Depends only on GTK and hence is very fast.
XNC - X Northern Captain. Very much like a X version of Midnight Commander. Also a very nice FTP capability, and lots of other goodies. Actually slower to load than tuxcmd though, unless you use its preloader. I believe that XNC is dependant only on X itself! It is an oldie, but a goodie.
Both are VERY good though. I used both almost daily, favoring them over xfe and mc at this point.
Of course, my *main* file management is done via Rox, since I use Rox's desktop and as a result, it is just SO convenient.
