ssh copy
Here's the situation:
lately, I've been finding myself at school on the day an essay/paper/similar computer related assignment is due, and without a hard copy (on paper) or a soft copy (on a disk) to turn in. I've set up a ssh server to deal with this, so that I can log into my own computer remotely: Now what do I do from here after logging in to send /home/$user/document.odt to whatever computer I'm working on? If I can't find a linux computer to do this at school, is it possible on a macintosh or windows system without downloading putty or a similar tool? My school likes to keep downloading things like that to a minimum (though they didn't bother to block the ssh ports... I've already checked) Thanks in advance |
scp(1) is your friend.
EDIT: Ignore that. I somehow missed the whole "can't find a linux computer" part. :/ |
If you don't have a linux machine ... you will have to use winSCP. If that is not allowed, set up a ftp server on your home comp and do a simple ftp , through IE / firefox and then download the file. the FTP server can run on pretty much any port you want.

The Gftp app (an GUI ftp/ssh and other protocols client file transfer app) that's on Slackware 12 does ssh
In it's upper right, just (from protocol choices) choose ssh2 for the protocol -- then, ssh logon, browse to the file, click/select the file, click the arrow that points in the needed direction of file transfer, file is transferred Any firewalls need to let ssh through. I'm of course unaware if you've access to that the Gftp app. After a console ssh logon, can't cp just do the task? I forget -- it's been a while since I did a console ssh logon. fish in konqueror can do too, can drag from fish window to another, a local window then drop on local window. Works pretty good - but I did have a prob a time or two. I since reverted to using Gftp because it always did it without messing up (no prob as happened with konqueror a time or two) and Gftp is an easy GUI to use. -- Alan. |

Edit: I missed "putty" word.. If you can't access to external programs like pscp then yes, ftp/http with simple auth is the best solution.
