Re: [beagleboard] Shouldn't be this difficult. upload file

[Mike]

Putty connected via a serial connection (aka a tty) doesn't copy files 
from one machine to another.  Look into something like scp, sftp, 
winscp, etc. etc. etc.  Those all connect via IP though not serial.

Trying to upload a file "test.txt" to the BBB from my local computer

Tried all these. nothing works.  What stupid mistake am I making?

Putty is running in the directory that "test.txt" resides.
the directory testing exists in the root on the BBB.  I see it with ls -a
I can cd to it and find no files in it. As it should be.

I try unsuccessfully to upload a file to it.  What am I doing wrong?

root@beaglebone:~/testing# cp test.txt test.txt

cp: cannot stat 'test.txt': No such file or directory


root@beaglebone:~/testing# cp C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\test.txt 
/root/testing/test.txt


-bash: AdministratorDesktoptest.txt: command not found
cp: missing destination file operand after 'C:Users'
Try 'cp --help' for more information.


root@beaglebone:~/testing# cp

cp: cannot stat '192.168.13.104:UsersAdministratorDesktoptest.txt': No
