    Remote upload to server

    Maybe this is a stupid question, but is there a way or application I can install on my server to remotely upload files to a it (like say I’m at a friends house, and I find some file I want like a game demo or a new Linux iso, and there’s no way to get it from his house to mine) so instead of downloading it and then uploading it, can I tell the server to download it.

    scp sounds like what you want.

    From a terminal at your friends computer,
    Code:
    scp linux.iso me@myserver.org:~/
    If your friend uses windows, then get him to install WinSCP, and you can do the same thing.

    Many Thanks

    That could work, and WinSCP Feels allot better the Filezilla. I was wondering as well whether there’s a program like torrentflux except of using bittorrent, using ftp and http.
