SFTP to a Raspberry Pi or Other Remote Machine

Another quick one, mostly a note.

Once you have ssh setup, you can use any FTP client (Filezilla, CyberDuck .. ) to connect to your remote machine and manage files, this makes life a lot easier than just using pure command line in terminal, at least for file management.

  • Input the local or remote ip of the machine.
  • Input your username and password.
  • Make sure your use port 22. (Unless your changed the SSH port )
  • Select SFTP option and Connect

Should be easy and straight forward if you can already connect with SSH. If you run into issues it could be a firewall or port forwarding issue so look into that, any other issue should be spelled out for you in the console.
