You can do this with the scp (secure copy) command.


scp user@host:/path/to/file /where_to_store_file

Thanks fluid11

That works great between 2 linux machines...
I should have been clearer in my question...
Can I send a file from a M$ workstation to a linux server using ssh?

I am currently using PowerTerm Pro 8.8 and it has a send file option... but none of the protocols work:
Kermit, X, Y, Z modem, Ascii and Binary...

Am I going about it the wrong way??

This will allow you to use scp between a Linux and Windows host...
