On, the windows machine - you can just open a command prompt, and then type: ftp <servernername> providing of course, you have an vsftpd running on your server. <tt><<Message: 3 Date: Fri, 22 Jul 2005 11:40:21 -0400 From: "Robert Pelletier" <bpellet@mail.cslf.org> Subject: [rhn-users] Using Putty or VNC to Copy a File to the C: Drive To: "Red Hat Network Users List" <rhn-users@redhat.com> Message-ID: <91F5B1D180A19E44B2D75B5DCD37452502804B09@genesis.cslf.org> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" We need to copy a file to my Windows machine from our RH 3 Server in order to burn a CD (we do not have a burner on the Server). I want to PUTTY into the server or VNC in to the server and copy the file to my machine. I have tried to CP the file and it simply copies it to the root directory of the server machine. Is this doable? If it is what is the command? Once again thanks all.
