SSH and remote files
 

I am connecting to my school computer through ssh and working on programs. Is there an easy way to transfer those files (residing on the school server) back to my home directory?

Thanks!

scp will transfer files over ssh protocol
winscp is very nice for windows
scp works in most all linux distros

Re: SSH and remote files
 

Use scp (secure copy) to transfer using ssh. Just use something like scp user@host:/path/to/file . or scp user@123.456.789.012:/path/to/file . to copy the file to the current directory. You may also want to check out sftp (secure ftp) it is installed as well with ssh.

Fastest answers in the west! Thanks!

FWIW, I just did a sftp user@cs.college.edu

and get prog2.cpp and it now resides in my home directory!

Thanks again!
