Last question now, maybe i'll figure this one out before someone responds like the others, but I've been searching and trying different things for a while now and cant get it.

I want to be able to copy files from the N900 to either my local machine (thats running putty connected to my dedicated server, and then connected to the n900) or copy the files to my dedicated server - either is fine with me.

I can get files to copy to other locations with scp but i cant get the files to my local. Im using the command like this:

Code:

scp root@localhost:/home/user/MyDocs/somefile.txt .

Use something like cygwin or mobaXterm on your pc and the first scp you wrote will work.

Another way is to use WinSCP.

Should i run it straight on the server? The server is win7 running CopSSH and it has a bash shell but i cant connect to the n900 from that.

Thanks for the link, not heard of mobaXterm, i'll read up on it when I finish work, but if i use that i still am a little confused as to whether i should be running it on the server or my local machine.

Maybe its a little easier to describe to me if I show you my setup:

Code:

Local machine - win7- (internal)192.168.2.4

Server - win7 - sshd - (int)192.168.2.5 - (ext)MyServerIP

N900 - usual setup

At the moment, i cant seem to talk to the n900 from the server, the only way i can get it to work is connecting the local machine to the server via putty and MyServerIP and then logging in, then i use the ssh command for the n900 (ssh -p 8080 localhost -l root), enter my password and im away.

Sorry for going on, but should i be able to do it on the server or am i using the right method using a local machine and the server as a middle man?

Retry = 0


Change MaxRetry to 1.
