    I suggest man scp (secure copy via ssh). Or did I misunderstand your question?

    You might prefer fugu, which is a free graphical client for sftp (secure ftp).



    If your trying to use the command line for whatever reason, then 
    Code:


    man sftp

    well, for example, if 192.169.1.2 is your IP and the remote machine is 192.168.1.5,



    scp 192.168.1.5:/home/snarfblatt/.bashrc ./



    would copy the remote file .bashrc to the current working directory on the local machine.



    scp ./.bashrc 192.168.1.5:/home/snarfblatt/



    would do the reverse
