Roy,

Try scp.  For info, type "man scp"

See also: ftp, apache (place the file in /var/www/ on the remote machine then wget -cb from your local machine), rsync, etc.

I prefer the apache/wget -cb method, especially for large files.

guys i need some help here. ok i use this command to start a download
onto a linux machine remotely so the download runs in the background.
it also shows me the file it creates for the download files. now the
problem i have is that i need the command that will enable me to get
the downloaded files off the machine on which the download was taking
place. i want to do it in command line. any ideas?
