ptSCP is a Perl/Tk-based software that offers a graphical frontend for ssh and scp protocols. The tool allows users to efficiently manage file transfers through a user-friendly interface.
With ptSCP, you will be able to transfer files back and forth between the two machines with ease. Additionally, the software enables users to perform a variety of basic file operations, whether they are dealing with local or remote files and directories.
To start using ptSCP, simply run the software and click on the "connect" button. From there, enter the hostname and username for the remote server. Once you are connected, you will see a listing of files and directories in your home directory on the remote host.
Note that since scp operates in a stateless manner, you are never really "connected" to the host. To disconnect, close the window. If you need to connect to another host, just click on the "connect" button once again.
To transfer files, select a file in either the local or remote window, and use the transfer buttons to copy the files. It is also possible to copy directories and multiple files at once. To change directories, you can either type the new directory in the directory field at the top, or double-click on any directory or symbolic link in either file list.
Finally, if you need access to a menu of file operations, right-click on any file in any of the file lists. Overall, ptSCP is a reliable software that offers an intuitive interface for secure file transfers over ssh and scp protocols.
