File Transfer

SSH Secure Shell makes it easy and convenient to transfer files between your local computer and the remote host computer. You can upload and download files by using an intuitive, graphical user interface similar in functionality to the Windows Explorer.

You can open the File Transfer window by clicking on the New File Transfer Window button on the Secure Shell toolbar, or by selecting the New File Transfer option from the Window menu. You can have an unlimited number of individual File Transfer windows open at the same time.

The Secure Shell 2 File Transfer contains several unique features that make secure transfer operations fast and easy.

Note, however, that the SSH Secure Shell for Workstations Windows client is not just an alternative to an FTP client. You cannot for example use the ssh2 client to login to a normal, insecure FTP host. The remote host computer must be running an ssh2 server.

Please note that the maximum size of a transferred file depends on the limitations of the file system.
