When copying from a remote server to a local host, you may wish simply to place the file(s) in the current directory. The filename or directory to put the file(s).
#HOW TO TRANSFER FILE USING PUTTY SERIAL COMMUNICATION FULL#
If the source is a remote server and you do not specify a full pathname (in UNIX, a pathname beginning with a / (slash) character), what you specify as a source will be interpreted relative to your home directory on the remote server.

*.*), but if you are copying from a UNIX system to a Windows system, you would use the wildcard syntax allowed by your UNIX shell (e.g. The syntax of wildcards depends on the system to which they apply, so if you are copying from a Windows system to a UNIX system, you should use Windows wildcard syntax (e.g. In the latter case, the session's settings for hostname, port number, cipher type and username will be used. The name of the remote server, or the name of an existing PuTTY saved session. Otherwise, PSCP will attempt to use the local Windows username. If this is omitted, and host is a PuTTY saved session, PSCP will use any username specified by that saved session.

However, you should be aware that by using this option you are giving the server the ability to write to any file in the target directory, so you should only use this option if you trust the server administrator not to be malicious (and not to let the server machine be cracked by malicious people). This will suppress the warning message and the file transfer will happen. If you really need to use a server-side wildcard with an SSH 1 server, you can use the -unsafe command line option with PSCP: pscp -unsafe c:\source If you are talking to an SSH 2 server which supports SFTP, you will never see this warning. PSCP will attempt to use the newer SFTP protocol (part of SSH 2) where possible, which does not suffer from this security flaw.
Since the wildcard matching rules are decided by the server, the client cannot reliably verify that the filenames sent back match the pattern.

However, there is nothing to stop the server sending back a different pattern and writing over one of your other files: if you request *.c, the server might send back the file name AUTOEXEC.BAT and install a virus for you. This is due to a fundamental insecurity in the old-style SCP protocol: the client sends the wildcard string ( *.c) to the server, and the server sends back a sequence of file names that match the wildcard pattern. Renaming of this file has been disallowed. If this is a wildcard, consider upgrading to SSH 2 or using However, in the second case (using a wildcard for multiple remote files) you may see a warning like this: warning: remote host tried to write to a file called 'terminal.c' To send (a) file(s) to a remote server: pscp source to copy the local file c:\documents\csh-whynot.txt to the server as user fred to the file /tmp/csh-whynot you would type: pscp c:\documents\csh-whynot.txt can use wildcards to transfer multiple files in either direction, like this: pscp c:\documents\*.doc c:\source So to copy the file /etc/hosts from the server as user fred to the file c:\temp\example-hosts.txt, you would type: pscp c:\temp\example-hosts.txt To receive (a) file(s) from a remote server: pscp target (PSCP's interface is much like the Unix scp command, if you're familiar with that.) 5.2.1 The basics

This tells you the version of PSCP you're using, and gives you a brief summary of how to use PSCP: Z:\owendadmin>pscp Once you've got a console window to type into, you can just type pscp on its own to bring up a usage message. On Windows 95, 98, and ME, you will need to edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT to include a set command like the one above. To set your PATH more permanently on Windows NT, use the Environment tab of the System Control Panel. This will only work for the lifetime of that particular console window. To add the directory containing PSCP to your PATH environment variable, type into the console window: set PATH=C:\path\to\putty\directory %PATH% To start PSCP it will need either to be on your PATH or in your current directory. It should be available from the Programs section of your Start Menu. With Windows 95, 98, and ME, this is called an "MS-DOS Prompt" and with Windows NT and 2000 it is called a "Command Prompt". This means that you cannot just double-click on its icon to run it and instead you have to bring up a console window. PSFTP does not in general work with SSH 1 servers, however. If you have an SSH 2 server, you might prefer PSFTP (see chapter 6) for interactive use. PSCP, the PuTTY Secure Copy client, is a tool for transferring files securely between computers using an SSH connection.
