Hello I am trying to upload and download files from my desktop to my server. Now after some search I did download psftp. I used to use filezilla earlier, but I cannot install it on my desktop due to a few reasons. Since psftp (similar to putty) is just an executable for file transfer.
So now after going through this link http://www.math.tamu.edu/~mpilant/math696/psftp.html. I understood that put and get are two commands I would use to download and upload files. Now when I logon to the server and say get filename, it actually is throwing back an error
"local: unable to open filename"
. I tried that with other files too, and I end up getting the same error.
Am I making a mistake or is it a problem with this executable?
I did not find relevant tags for this topic, could somebody suggest me the right forum for this issue.
