Hi Keith, Some useful alternatives are:
1./ sftp [EMAIL PROTECTED] (ftp via ssh - uses the standard command line ftp commands like get, put, etc) 2./ fish. If you're using KDE, fire up the Konqueror file manager and use fish by typing this into the address bar: fish://[EMAIL PROTECTED] 3./ SHFS (SHell File System) If you're interested in a secure tunnel to a whole file system: shfsmount [EMAIL PROTECTED]/directory /mnt/mountpoint enjoy, Marcel -----Original Message----- From: Keith Robinson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, September 22, 2003 6:57 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: (clug-talk) scp question yes, thanks, the second seems to work. I wonder why?
