Sure, sorry I should have done that in the original post.
The plugin + source can be downloaded near the Eclipse 3.1 download.

Scroll down almost to the bottom, and you’ll see “FTP and WebDAV Support”.
Note I have found a solution to my problem on the eclipse buglist, but its still sad that the code is no longer being maintained.
Here is the spot in the mailing list that states it is no longer being maintained. (It is also stated on multiple bug reports)

I have a hard time believing interest isn’t high enough because it is such a nice tool.
Someone also developed SFTP support for this which I never tried out but seem slike a great idea, but it also is no longer being supported, and was never updated to work with eclipe 3.1. Info can be found here: http://www.klomp.org/eclipse/org.klomp.eclipse.team.sftp/
Thanks for considering this.
