[rhn-users] Using Putty or VNC to Copy a File to the C: Drive

[Higareda, Robert]

You can create a share on your windows machine and use SMBmount to mount the
share onto your linux box. i.e. (once share is setup) mount -t smbfs -o
username=(insert username with access to share[no quote or anything needed])
, //computer/share /mnt/point and then you can just cp the file over to that
mount point and it will be on your windows box..or vice versa setup a share
on your linux box and mount the samba share on your linux box to the windows
machine.

Subject: [rhn-users] Using Putty or VNC to Copy a File to the C: Drive

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.
