Transferring files with SCP/SFTP

There are a number of clients and methods for transferring files to and from your VMs from a computer outside Jetstream.

• CyberDuck (https://cyberduck.io/) is a well-known client for both Windows and Mac OSX to move files to and from individual VMs.
  There are instructions here on using it for scp/sftp: https://trac.cyberduck.io/wiki/help/en/howto/sftp
  • You'll need to either have an SSH key saved on Jetstream or have the password set on your VM.
    • Instructions on adding keys is here
    • Instructions on using SSH -- with info on setting the password on your VM at the top -- are here
      
      
• WinSCP is another well-known Windows specific option: https://winscp.net/eng/download.php
• FileZilla is option supporting several operating systems, including Windows: https://filezilla-project.org/

These clients, while suggested, are not endorsed by Jetstream in any way. We have limited means to help with support issues related to these clients.
