SCP, which is based on the SSH protocol is a method for securely transfering
files and directories over the internet. On suso.org, it is the replacement
for the FTP protocol, which is less secure because passwords and files are
transmitted in clear text over the network, which makes it visible to
network sniffing software.
To use SCP, you need an SCP compatible client program for your operating
system. Here are some links to client programs. Choose one that is
for your operating system:
- Windows:
- Macintosh:
- Linux/*BSD
- gFTP
- sftp
- openssh scp (you probably already have it)
To login to your account, use the following information:
Server hostname: shell.suso.org
Port number: 22
Login username: username
After logging in, most GUI applications will let you drag and drop
the files between panes of the application window. It really depends
on which program you are using.
