Accessing files on taurus server

It is possible to access files created during labs. The are available on the server taurus.fis.agh.edu.pl
Available access protocols are either scp of sftp.

A typical sftp session would look like this:
sftp yourlogin@taurus.fis.agh.edu.pl
* you will be asked fro password, provide it*
sftp> ls # to list all files available
sftp> cd Desktop # to change current directory
sftp> get myfile.txt # to download the file

A more compact method is:
scp yourlogin@taurus.fis.agh.edu.pl:Desktop/myfile.txt . # copy single file
* you will be asked for the passowrd*
scp -r yourlogin@taurus.fis.agh.edu.pl:Desktop . # to copy entire directory Desktop from taurus to your local computer

Both, the sftp and scp can be used to place files on the taurus server for use during the lab.

sftp yourlogin@taurus.fis.agh.edu.pl
* you will be asked fro password, provide it*
sftp> put file.txt # copy file to server

scp myfile.txt yourlogin@taurus.fis.agh.edu.pl:Desktop/ # copy myfile.txt to your home directory
scp myfile.txt yourlogin@taurus.fis.agh.edu.pl:Desktop/ # copy myfile.txt to the Deskop directory on taurus single file
* you will be asked for the passowrd*
scp -r AllMyFiles yourlogin@taurus.fis.agh.edu.pl:Desktop . # to copy entire directory AllMyFiles to the Desktop director on taurus
