How to FTP

FTP stands for "File Transfer Protocol". To transfer files across the Internet you will have to use FTP. There are many different types of FTP clients. We recommend using either WS_FTP or PSCP, however you may use your own ftp clients if you wish (though without TA assistance).

  1. PSCP This is the recommend choice for people off-campus (but can be used on-campus too).
  2. Links to WS_FTP, and others appear here. (If you need more detailed instructions for WS_FTP there is a old page located here which may prove helpful.)
