Hi!

Can you transer files with ssh like with ftp?

Yes, except that it's called sftp. Take a look at "man sftp" for the details. To talk to a server all you need is the "openssh-client" package which, I believe is installed automatically. To be a server, you need to install "openssh-server", as well.

Ok, thats nice!

But the thing is that I want to copy files from my Kubuntu machine to my Windows machine.

To connect I use Putty.

Is it still posible?

If putty is a genuine ssh client, I don't see why not. That doesn't mean that you can, it means that I can't see why not. If it doesn't work, get an error message and we can go from there.

I'll try and come back with results...

Thanks!
