    9 I recently ran into an interesting situation. I needed to transfer some files
   10 to two soon-to-be Linux web servers. These servers however, could not be
   11 modified in any way other than transferring this file. In other words, I
   12 couldn't install samba or ftp installed, right?).
   13 
   14 After looking around, I found a program called
   15 http://winscp.net[http://winscp.net/ winscp]] that will do just the trick.
   16 Here's how it's done.
   17 
   18 Head on over to http://winscp.net[http://winscp.net/] and download the
   19 appropriate files (I downloaded the portable executable because I didn't want
   20 to install).
   21 
   22 After you've done that, load up winscp and you should see a window looking
   23 like...
   24 
   25 image:files/Winscp01.jpg[height=300]
   26 
   27 Fill in your hostname, ip address, username, and password and hit enter.  That
   28 should take you to a window looking something like...
   29 
   30 image:files/Winscp02.jpg[height=400]
   31 
   32 After that, simply drag and drop your files from the left to the right, or vice
   33 versa.
