Now, i’m currently need to do some file transfers from my server. In Windows i usually use WinSCP, a very nice (so people said it also) tool for managing files through SSH connection, but im quite in confuse when i try to find the similar one like WinSCP.

After googling a bit, i found some alternatives to do it :

  1. Wine – it !! Simply saying, if u can’t find the equivalent software in linux, then juz Wine it :) . Run WinSCP using Wine.
  2. use gFtp
    install gFTP: sudo apt-get install gftp,
    Load gFtp ( Applications – Internet – gFTP), insert ur server address / domain, port, username and password,set the protocol to SSH2,connect.
  3. use Nautillus, the default file manager for Ubuntu, how to do it ?
    open Nautillus, change the address to text instead button look (the button below the “Back”  button) then insert like this : sftp://username@server.com:portnumber
    Alternatively, go to menu : File – Connect to Server, then fill the fields with your own details.

That’s it.. alternative way to get the work done beside using WinSCP :)
