Move files from Linux to Windows

Goddard · 11-10-2009, 08:03 PM

I have a web server that is running Linux and it hosts a website where people can upload files for a game server which is running Windows XP well atleast ideally it would do this. I did host them both on the same server at one point and time and it was easy to move these documents from one location to the next. How would I do this on a windows(XP) machine from a linux machine(Ubuntu)?

Thanks for the help.

If smb or cifs is setup, easy.
If nothing is setup, pull out the mingw and start compiling.

These are abbreviations for programs or protocols?

You can webmin

huh? Webmin does that?

smb and cifs are protocols. You would use samba to implement that.
And no, webmin can't do that. It can help you set-up samba, though,
with a little luck.

You can also use NFS, although it is far less popular (windows linux) than samba/cifs.

I acutally got SSHFS working and it worked great at first, but after I shut everything off and tried to remount it it worked, but is giving me a lack of permissions.

I need user permissions...what can I do?

Code:

%man chmod
%man chown

Look at the examples
