Lab #2 Directories, Files and SFTP

Move files from your (local) computer to the remote computer

1. In order to practice moving a file to the web server, you'll need a file. So download the Lab #2 checklist which you'll be handing in at the end of this lab: lab02_checklist.doc

2. Save this file on your desktop (ask a neighbor or the TA if you aren't sure how to do this).

3. Choose one of these methods to upload your file to the web server (Dante):

a. Drag the file from the local (left) side to the remote (right) side.

b. Right-click on lab02_checklist.doc in the left side of the screen and select Upload

c. Click on the file and choose Upload from the Operation menu.

4. Now practice downloading the file back to your computer by doing the reverse (i.e., go from the right side of the screen to the left). If you move it to the same location where the original is stored, you'll get a message like this:

Click Yes.
