To copy from Linux to Linux, the best/fastest/securest way is to use scp. What is the issue behind not wanting to use scp?

I guess you could attach up the old sneaker net and burn the file to a CD and walk it over to the computer you want to copy to... No protocols used here!!

But in all seriousness...you gotta tell us why you cant use tcp protocols for copying a file. That's how file transfers are made. Is the command line just intimidating?

Carrier pigeon.

Wait -- that's a protocol too. Guess you're out of luck.

I usually copy file in 2 ways:
1、scp;
2、Xmodem(SecurecRT or PUTTY):
Example:copy FILE01 from host01 to host02:
#ssh host01;
#sz FILE01; (save FILE01 in my local machine);
#ssh host02;
#rz (select FILE01 from locale machine and save in host02)

Try using FTP.
open cmd;
ftp <Linux Ip>
enter Linux user name and password
enter bi to copy files in binary mode.
use get <file name> to copy files or use
enter prompt to cancel to give yes for all files.
then enter mget * to copy all the files.
