Question Unix / Host explorer

Anyone know where I can get a download of a unix / aix explorer (pref with X-Windows) to run from Windows XP, as I transfer files between the two systems on a frequent basis.

  • WinSCP
    is an open source freeware SFTP client for Windows using SSH. Legacy SCP protocol is also supported. Its main function is safe copying of files between a local and a remote computer.

As long as the UNIX box is running SSH, you can use this program to transfer your files, with as much ease as using Windows Explorer

You might also want to look in this previous thread, which might cover your question as well

Thanks for the info, came across this earlier, not had much exposure to ssh and setting it up so would prefer non-ssh or can you recommend any info on ssh for AIX5.

This IBM link may help, OpenSSH is now bundled with AIX
