Hello,
I have recently been trying to figure out how to connect my MBP (which I currently use at school) to my computer running Windows XP (which is at my house) remotely via ssh and ftp. I have been trying to figure it out with google, etc. but it's hard to find out which information to use considering I don't have access to the XP computer b/c I'm at school.
I have been learning a lot of scattered information involving ssh, ftp, and Putty and I purchased $5.00 shell account with silenceisdefeat.org to use as practice since I don't know how to remotely connect to anyone's computer at school. I was wondering if anyone could help me put the pieces together. Here is essentially what I want to want to accomplish:
- How to remotely connect to a friend's--with their consent of course--computer inside AND outside of my school's network via ssh or ftp.
- How connect to my home network so that I may connect to my computer.
- How to upload and download files to and from my computer at home.
- Find out how I can use my shell account to accomplish the tasks above.
I would prefer to use the terminal as my vehicle as opposed to a third party application.
Any help on on these subjects would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
M
