4/11    What's the best way to transfer files between Macs and PCs? I don't
        want to install NFS (too heavy weight), there must be another way.
        Like, I don't want to use SCP because it doesn't do recursive copy...
            \_ my problem with WinSCP is that it doesn't like to copy file
               names with foreign letters (accented e, Ooo, etc). What other
               alternatives are there besides WinSCP which I like a lot?
               \_ You were given the correct answer and deleted it.  go away.
            \_ scp doesn't do recursive copy? have you tried scp -r?
        \_ scp -r.  windows scp clients do this too.  fool
        \_ samba on the Mac.  -tom
        \_ Why not just connect to the PC from the Mac? OS X has a built-in
           SMB client or you can just enable Windows Sharing on OS X for
           the opposite direction.

        \_ USB2.0/IEEE1394 hard drive enclosure
           \_ Why was this deleted?
        \_ rsync over ssh.
        \_ car full of cdrs!
           \_ Only if copied and driven by a hot naked chick, who you have sex
              with during the copying.
           \_ Only if the data is lisp code.
        \_ 4" floppy disk
        \_ smb share + net.
           \_ seconded. If you have OpenSSH installed on your Win* box,
              then you can even use ssh tunneling.

6/15    Attempting to sftp to http://csua.berkeley.edu. Got password from key.
        Entered password and got back:
        Received message too long 1701996907
        Wtf?
        \_ password from key.  since sftp uses ssh, shouldn't you just
           use your normal password?

9/29    What do you guys use to SFTP your files from soda to home Winbox?
        I use WinSCP but it hangs too often.  Thx.
        \_ cygwin scp
        \_ SecureCRT + zmodem
                \_ SecureFX
        \_ Putty's pscp.  Though FileZilla works too.  Both are free.

7/12    Anyone know of a lightweight secure ftp program like secure fx?
        Putty PsFtp is *too* lightweight.
        \_ try WinSCP
        \_ ssh secure shell client for windows, available on http://depot.berkeley.edu
           if you can't access http://depot.berkeley.edu, maybe you shouldn't be on
           a machine that is supposedly for undergrads.

6/19    Is there a free program that does scp on window 95?  (This is for a
        machine at work, over which I have no control.)
        \_ I don't know if it works on Win95, but it works on Win2k and
           Win98:  putty and pscp.  Do a google search.
        \_ As the above person said, pscp works.  Also try WinSCP.  Has some
           issues with its interface (at least the version I have), but does

8/28    I use my cory account to ftp from campus labs when secure
        alternatives aren't available, so I basically treat it as
        hacked/hackable.  But assuming that I need to get to soda from
        cory, which is more secure-- password-based normal logins, or
        password-protected DSA files?  Or are they both about the same?
        \_ Why are secure alternatives not available? You can always use
