WinSCP is a file transfer program included with
the SEU Network Installer. Members of the St. Edward's community
may also download a copy of WinSCP from http://www.frc.stedwards.edu/installers.
With WinSCP, you can transfer files to and from your Windows
computer and other computers using Secure File Transfer Protocol
(SFTP).
Note that only servers with Secure FTP setup may
be accessed using WinSCP. On the St. Edward's campus these servers
include:
- edshare.stedwards.edu
- acad.stedwards.edu
- aux.stedwards.edu
The admin.stedwards.edu server does not accept
SFTP connections. Use WS_FTP to access admin.stedwards.edu.
