Day to day file movement between Cloverleaf platform and win

[Bob Schmid]

Guys,

For Unix users:

What do you currently use to get into your Unix boxes from Cloverleaf (outside of IDE).

Doyou telnet,ssh…

how about moving files to your windows desktop for “extended editing/manipulation”…do you use ftp from the windows client to the unix server and “get”…do you run some versino of an sftp client on windows…and if so…what ?

We are starting to get locked down on telnet and http://ftp..and want a good bidirectional solution from/to windows desktop for movement and manipulatino of files.

We are using PUTTY SSH instead of telnet…but do not current have sftp on the windows environment.

Thanks for any help/advice.

Bob

Putty SSH client for Windows.

Filezilla SFTP client for Windows.  I set up a bookmark for the “test_data” directory which is the normal source or destination of my transfers.

We use WRQ Reflection for both UNIX access from desktop and FTP to our desktop.

We use HummingBird which comes with what they call the “Network Neighborhood”.

The “Network Neighborhood” shows up in the Microsoft Windows Explorer as if your UNIX box was another shared drive with drag and drop copy/paste capability.

In reality the “Network Neighborhood is a fancy user interface wrapped around your choice of file transfer and SSH/SFTP is one of the choices.

For simply editing file(s) on our UNIX boxes from our PC via SSH/SFTP we often use Ultra-Edit, which is cheap and a must have utility in my opinion even for the home PC.

I use Putty SSH and WinSCP for transferring files. Been using those for many, many years. Both are free. Also note that there’s an OpenSSH port for windows.

I use PowerTerm for telnet access and FTP Navigator for file transfer.

I have set up Samba on my test unix server to share a unix directory so Windows can see it as a shared folder. Haven’t had much time to test it though.
