Arrggghhhhh!! There I was trying my host name been 5 hrs trying to d/l files. So I guess that the command string I use then is: scp -r [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/photos/ This I guess will download the whole of the photos dir to my machine and if I just use scp [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/index.htm/ that will download just that file ?? -- Keith Antoine aka 'skippy' 18 Arkana St, The Gap, Queensland 4061 Australia PH:61733002161 Retired Geriatric, Sometime Electronics Engineer, Knowall, Brain in storage _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list - http://linux.nf/mailman/listinfo/linux-users Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Archives,and Digests are located at the above URL.
