getting files from one machine to another?
    #5292407 - 02/12/06 07:07 PM (17 years, 11 months ago)

this should probably be very simple, but my networking experience is nothing.

i have two machines running ubuntu, and they're both hooked up to the same router with cat-5 cables.

i need a quick way to get files from one machine to the other. what's the easiest way to do this?

sftp: illegal option -- l
usage: sftp [-1Cv] [-B buffer_size] [-b batchfile] [-F ssh_config]
[-o ssh_option] [-P sftp_server_path] [-R num_requests]

sftp [[user@]host[:file [file]]]
sftp [[user@]host[:dir[/]]]
sftp -b batchfile [user@]host

there is a wire that looks like an Ethernet wire that is called something else and it uses your Ethernet port for data transfer.

sftp username@other.machine's.ip.here

that'll put you into the sftp shell.
cd to change directory on the remote machine
lcd to change on the local machine
get filename to download
put filename to upload

there are two machines with ubuntu installed.

one is 192.168.1.100, username 'jim'.

the other is 192.168.1.101, username 'nellie'.

files need to go from 'jim' to 'nellie'.

they're each hooked into the same router. this should be easy but i have no idea how to do it.

that's what i would do if one of these machines wasn't a laptop.
