The easiest way to transfer files between Windows and Linux 2016-02-24 07:01
There are many ways to transfer files between Windows and Linux, but they are not satisfactory.
- FTP
you have to install FTP server and start the service. Keep the service on or when you need transfer you have to start service first.
- SCP
you have to type long command in terminal. I hate long command. I hate input username and password(especially strong password).
- Putty
if you use UI you have to open a new window and input username and password again. if you use commandline it's same with SCP(long command).
Is there a easier way to transfer between windows and Linux?
YES!
Install lrzsz
sudo yum install lrzsz
if you want download file from Linux to windows use "sz"
sz <file_full_name>
if you want upload file from windows to Linux use "rz", then choose the file click OK button.
