SCP is the way forward - it's installed besides ssh (secure shell).

oops, didn't see the first reply somehow.

If you don't have any of those and security is not an issue, try netcat.

wats netcat?

[robinsonvpanicker]

well actually i wanted to transfer the file though a client server program without any commands.....

[robinsonvpanicker]

scp and ssh is not supported by our hardware

[raghaven.kumar]

what you mean hardware doesnt support?
??

[robinsonvpanicker]

i mean my client is the PC and the server will reside in an embedded h/w......i.e. the hardware OS will not have many commands to support other than basic ones.........i hope now u understand

Well, maybe you can try describing the embedded device that will act as a server and giving as actually SOME info on what can we run on that machine. If we have no idea at all about the tools we are going to have available, then we can only guess senseless answers that will help no one.

If what you intend is to program a solution starting from scratch, then you seem a bit lost already. You should start by reading something about the client/server model and letting us know what language are you going to use to develop that (asm, C or whatever else).
