I need to transfer files/folders between a remote machine running Linux and my local machine running Windows XP. I usually access the remote machine through ssh
, and sometimes use VNC sessions
.
What is the easiest way to transfer a file from the remote machine to my local machine and vice versa?
- I think
ftp
should be the solution. Is there a better way? - If
ftp
is a good option, how do I initiate the transfer? Do I need to setup ftp servers on both the machines and then transfer? What exactly needs to be done?
