Copy files between two windows machines on seperate domains
- by Simon
I need to copy several database backups between two computers.
The source computer initiates the copy and is a Windows 2000 pc and is a member of domain1.
The destination machine is running Windows Server 2000 and is a member of domain2.
The machines are on separate networks physically connected via a firewall.
The files are currently copied via ssh with http://sshwindows.sourceforge.net/ installed on the destination machine.
There is no need to encrypt the contents during the copy, however the passwords should not be sent in the clear.
I am looking for a way to copy the files without having to install a server on the destination.
I specifically need help with how to set up the permissions and what ports would need to be opened on the firewall.
