Commands to copy a tar.gz file from a Remote Unix Server to Local Desktop.

Hi,

Just wanted to know, how can I ftp/transfer/copy a (design.tar.gz) archive from a Unix Server (sdmc222.sdmc.cp-srv.com) which is at a remote location, to my Windows Desktop. Obviously, it is not possible at cmd prompt on my Windows using the following commands :-

ftp sdmc222.sdmc.cp-srv.com
ftp> pwd
ftp> lcd c:\
ftp> bin
ftp> get password
ftp>

as the above Unix Server is not a Local Server.

I know that this can be done using WinSCP or using a SARA client with VPN,
but just wanted to know all the commands(using both WINSCP and SARA with VPN), which have to be used to copy (design.tar.gz) archive from one of the directories on the Remote Unix Server (sdmc222.sdmc.cp-srv.com) to my local Windows Desktop or C:/

Request you to please let me know all the commands.

Thanks a lot in advance.

With Best Regards,
Marconi.

NAME
ftp - FTP client configuration file SYNOPSIS
/etc/default/ftp DESCRIPTION
Use the ftp file to configure the behavior of the FTP client. Lines that begin with a hash symbol ("# ") are treated as comment lines and are ignored. Behavior Directives The ftp file supports the following behavior directives: FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST=yes | no The ls command of the ftp client sends an NLST to the FTP Server by default. Several non-Solaris clients send LIST instead. In order to make the Solaris ftp client send LIST when the ls command is issued, set FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST to no. The value of FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST is yes by default. If the user sets a value for FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST in the user's environment, this value will override any FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST directive that is specified in /etc/default/ftp. ATTRIBUTES
