Where are the host files in MSN?

What's the best way to copy files from a remote host ([email protected]) to local computer (from Hostel)?

  • I used scp to copy files from local host to athena but how to copy files from athena to my local host ?

  • Answer:

    In your terminal console (Not athena), type following command: scp [email protected]:path_to_source_on_remote path_to_local_target E.g. To move inh.java (which is inside directory named java in athena account) to a directory named JAVA (which is inside Documents in local computer). scp [email protected]:java/inh.java Documents/JAVA To move all files of directory named java (in athena account) to a directory named JAVA (inside Documents in local computer). scp -r [email protected]:java Documents/JAVA Check http://srishcomp.wordpress.com/2012/12/18/how-to-use-athena-2/  for more info.

FileZilla is the best way. And you don't need a tutorial or learn commands to use it either. All you need to do is to drag the file. But if the person is truly, madly, and deeply in love with terminal, they could use the way suggested by . EDIT: Something for the lesser minds:

I think the Best way is using sftp sftp it will guide you to a ftp shell and you can use put filename  (upload a file) get filename   (download a file) more commands http://kb.iu.edu/data/akqg.html
