You will need software that supports secure transfer of files between your computer and the Compute Canada machines. The commands <code>scp</code> and <code>sftp</code> can be used in a command-line environment on '''Linux''' or '''Mac''' OS X computers. On '''Microsoft Windows''' platforms, [https://docs.computecanada.ca/wiki/Connecting_with_MobaXTerm/en MobaXterm] offers both a graphical file transfer function and a [[Linux introduction|command-line]] interface via [[SSH]], while [http://winscp.net/eng/index.php WinSCP] is another free program that supports file transfer. [https://docs.computecanada.ca/wiki/Connecting_with_PuTTY/en PuTTY] comes with <code>pscp</code> and <code>psftp</code> which are essentially the same as the Linux and Mac command line programs. | You will need software that supports secure transfer of files between your computer and the Compute Canada machines.
