What about samba/shared folders, ftp, or even sshfs if you are a unix user.

If you like Emacs, there is Tramp, and I know Vim has something equivalent.

I have tried a number of the ones that you and others mention. The security was awful. They would create the remote drive (or whatever) automatically, all the time. eek! I want to have to log in first.

It has been a few years since I have tried. I hope something has improved.

Again, basically, I would prefer to edit in Notepad++ or Sublime instead of vi. Personal preference.
