Hi Guys
I've recently discovered scp and sftp as a means of transferring files between
computers. I have a desktop and a laptop, both running Xubuntu 9.10. They are
connected to a common router; the desktop via ethernet cable and the laptop via
wi-fi.
Whilst I know how to use these protocols at a simple level, I'm not clear on
the background architecture. Do the transfers just take place locally through
the router or do they go via my ISP?
Apologies if this seems a bit dense. It's something I feel I should know
already, but don't!
Regards
Nige
