Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users how can I copy a file from unix to window machine? Post 302098526 by pileofrogs on Monday 4th of December 2006 06:16:57 PM

Is there an SFTP server for windows? What about SCP/SSH? If you're copying from Windows to Unix, scp and sftp are the obvious choices, but since you're copying from unix to windows, the answer might be different. How secure do you need this to be? If the two boxes are sitting next to eachother and you want to do this often, samba is probably a good idea. If the Windows box is accross the internet from your unix box... I have no idea... I'd look for a windows sftp/scp server.

Scp and Sftp are the default unix to unix file copy utilities.

NAME
pscp - command-line SCP (secure copy) / SFTP client SYNOPSIS
pscp [options] [user@]host:source target pscp [options] source [source...] [user@]host:target pscp [options] -ls [user@]host:filespec DESCRIPTION
pscp is a command-line client for the SSH-based SCP (secure copy) and SFTP (secure file transfer protocol) protocols. OPTIONS
The command-line options supported by pscp are: -V Show version information and exit. -pgpfp Display the fingerprints of the PuTTY PGP Master Keys and exit, to aid in verifying new files released by the PuTTY team. -ls Remote directory listing. -p Preserve file attributes. -q Quiet, don't show statistics. -r Copy directories recursively. -unsafe Allow server-side wildcards (DANGEROUS). -v Show verbose messages. -load session Load settings from saved session. -P port Connect to port port. -l user Set remote username to user. -batch Disable interactive prompts. -pw password Set remote password to password. CAUTION: this will likely make the password visible to other users of the local machine (via com- mands such as `w'). -1 Force use of SSH protocol version 1. -2 Force use of SSH protocol version 2. -C Enable SSH compression. -i path Private key file for authentication. -scp Force use of SCP protocol. -sftp Force use of SFTP protocol. MORE INFORMATION
For more information on pscp it's probably best to go and look at the manual on the PuTTY web page: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ BUGS
This man page isn't terribly complete. See the above web link for better documentation. PuTTY tool suite 2004-03-24 pscp(1)
