Traditional FTP Access to the ARL:UT FTP server
You may use command line ftp clients on UNIX, Linux and Windows systems to anonymously access the Secure File Server.
On the command line, just type in:
ftp ftp.arlut.utexas.edu
and login using the username: 'anonymous'
with your email address as the password.
Our server supports 'sftp', which is required for any non-anonymous access.
If you need an sftp client here are some you might consider using:
-
SecureFX from VanDyke Technologies. This is NOT a free application
but it does provide all the functionality you might need to interface with any sftp server.
-
For those of you who require only limited access to the ARL Secure File Server an free application called SecEx from
ByteFusion may be the solution. This application provides a GUI interface (Windows only?) and limited functionality, but it is free and it will move your files.
-
If you prefer command line sftp please consider the free OpenSSH on Windows implementation available from
Network Simplicity.
-
puTTY, a free telnet client, also offers a free command-line sftp client
available here.
-
And of course, UNIX workstations with SSH installed
will be able to use the native sftp utility from the command line.
Things you'll need to know when you configure your client:
|
System name
|
ftp.arlut.utexas.edu
|
|
Port
|
22
|
|
User Name
|
[your assigned UserID]
|
|
Password
| [your password]
|
|
Home Directory
|
In most instances you may accept the default with no ill effects, the server will drop you into the appropriate directory
