james_4k2 Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Hi, I have a server which I can access remotely using putty. It has CentOS in it and the GUI is disabled. Now I am trying to transfer a tar file into that server using ftp or wget. Ftp does not connect, zip file does not transfer and my last option is get tar file using wget. This works in a weird way, no matter how big is the tar file , it downlaods 97% of file in one session and then get the remaining 3% in second wget session. As a result I cannot untar the files successfully. It can be a firewall issue which I am not sure of but if not then please let me know the solution if anyone knows it. It has now become a nightmare for me. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 On the putty page is another program called pscp.exe (see here). It is a windows clone of the *nix command scp. Its the simplest program for transfering files from one machine to another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviewdr Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 I use winscp to transfer files to my server. Your FTP program may be able to do it also. You would have to choose the "SCP" option on it however. -steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
