[macosx-unix] looking for mac-winscp

Has anyone here used winscp? It is quite a bit more than the
openssh scp command.
Anyway, we (here at $WORK) are looking to turn off the Samba
protocol entirely on the local network. While the workstations
here are mostly M$, there is a plan to switch over to Mac; but for
the time being, mine is one of two computers running Mac.
In the past, I've setup the apple file share protocol (nettalk
I think it's called) but I'd prefer not starting a new service
just as another is being taken down. NFS is not an option as more
authentication is needed than that provides.
So in a nutshell, winscp is a perfect solution but it doesn't run
on Mac, as far as I can tell. Is anybody using something similar
to get authenticated, browsable, gui file sharing? I'm happy to
use command line or the finder to access the files, but command
line scp is not enough, I need a mounted filesystem or virtually
that.
