sftp, ssh, scp

Just a quick blurb. ssh -X will allow X-forwarding provided you have a running X-server on the host machine (an example for Microsoft Windows would be Xming). sftp allows simple FTP-style manipulations of SSL.

Recursive copies over SSL are performed with scp -r user@hostname:remotepath localpath from the *nix prompt.

Cygwin works well in supporting these.

That's all.
