If you want to do your work on your local computer, e.g., your lap-top, you can trasnfer files from the school Linux server using some type of secure file transfer programs.

For Mac users, you can simply use the 'scp' command from a terminal as shown in the following two examples.

1. transfer files from Linux server to your local computer

scp abc123@linuxremote:~csci204/student-labs/lab02/* .

which copies all files for lab2 to your local directory.

2. transfer files from your local computer to your Linux account

cd <my location for csci204>
scp <local-files> abc123@linuxremote:~abc123/csci204/labs/lab02/

which copies all files from <my location for csci204> folder on your laptop to your Linux account on Bucknell's linuxremote.

For Window users, you will need to download and install a piece of software that can do this. Many different types of software can do the job. A popular one is called 'PuTTY'. Read the instructions in the following link for downloading and installing the software and see the examples how to send files back and forth.
