I want to copy my DBServer (LINUX) to Desktop . i can access the same from putty. but i dont want to use a third party tool. Is there any Command in Unix or linux to copy a file direct from Linux to Windows.

I want to copy a file from unix without using any third party tool. like winscp, Xftp

Yes, there's cp if you've got a shared mount. – larsmans Sep 22 '11 at 11:11
Linux to Windows where? Two different computers? Virtual machines? On the same hard drive? – slhck Sep 22 '11 at 11:35

You don't have to use ftp programs or software. A simple copy command

    cp filename1 destination/of/file2/filename2

and you are done. If you mean from a virtual machine or something that is a different story. In that case we need to know what setup you run.

Share a windows folder and then mount it over the network using samba. If you have gnome, or KDE you will have a network bro
