ULYSSIS doesn't support ftp, because it is insecure. However, we support sftp (ftp over ssh). This works similar as ssh.
On the server, your files are located in /home/group/username/
. For a normal user with username username/
this will be /home/user/username/
, for an organisation with username organisation/
this will be /home/org/organisation/
etc.
Non-graphical methods
The most common way to transfer files is with a terminal by using the scp
command.
Copying file to host:
scp SourceFile user@host:directory/TargetFile
Copying file from host:
scp user@host:directory/SourceFile TargetFile scp -r user@host:directory/SourceFolder TargetFolder
You don't need to use the full path to your file. You may you the relative path, starting from your home directory. For example:
scp index.html user@ssh1.ulyssis.org:www/index.html
Graphical methods
The graphical methods are explained in Accessing your files.
