Hi,

I am not an expert..But I think you can use ftp command to get done with your problem.

Thanks!

sir,

i think we use ftp command in Linux only for file transfer from one user to another

user in Linux System...

otherwise, plz give procedure for file transfer using ftp commands from linux system to windows system....

As usual, there are so many (potentially) "correct" answers to your question that one hardly knows where to start. More information is usually a good place.

Are you trying to move files from one filesystem to another on the same (dual-boot) computer? Or are the two OSs running simultaneously on two different computers?

If it's a single (dual-boot) computer, then the most obvious thing to do is to mount the XP filesystem in your Linux and just copy the file(s).

If you're dealing with two separate computers, then there are a lot of other questions: Are you trying to set up a regular operation or is this a one-off? Is one (or both) of the computers a server or are both of them configured as desktop workstations? Is it important which computer be the one to initiate the file transfer? FTP requires that an FTP server process be running on one of the computers. Is IIS installed (and running) on the XP machine? Are you comfortable with leaving IIS running on the XP machine? What Linux distro is installed on the Linux machine?

If you can answer those questions, then we can give you a meaningful answer to your question of how to transfer your file(s).

OK. So from what you said, you have two separate computers and
1) you transfer files from one of them (unspecified) to your Linux server and
2) THEN you want to transfer the files from Linux to Windows XP on the same ("local") computer.

Is that right? What "local" means to me (and probably to most of us here) is "on the same computer".

So, to accomplish step 2, you will need to mount your windows partition into Linux. To do this, you need to know how your disks are laid out. The most common situation in a dual-boot (one computer/two OSs) layout will result in your windows partition corresponding to something like /dev/hda1, though the exact name will depend on what kind of disks you have and how you laid them out when you set up the computer. That's why I asked how many computers are involved and the other questions. I cannot even tell you an exact procedure for determining your disk layout without knowing what Linux distro you are using. And without knowing your disk layout, it is impossible to give you the exact commands to mount your XP partition.

I understand that you want exact commands and procedures for this problem, but you must understand that the exact commands and procedures will be different depending on the answers to the questions I asked you in my previous post. If you cannot answer them, then I can, at best, give you suggestions for where to try to look up the procedures. If you don't understand the questions, then ask about that. I would be happy to help you, but I need to know some things in order to do that.

Best Regards,
Paul

Look, it doesn't help to just keep repeating that you want "the solution". You need to understand that there is no such thing as "the solution".

There are always many ways to do something, but, typically, most of them are not what the questioner really wants.

OK. So despite your description of the XP as "local" you really mean that the XP machine and the Linux machine are two separate computers, right?

Furthermore, the Linux machine is running some (unspecified) version of RedHat.

Since you appear to know next to nothing about computers, I'll suggest a solution that should be comparatively easy for anyone who is even minimally capable, i.e., anyone who is even capable of posting a question here.

Find and install WinSCP (at http://winscp.net/eng/index.php) on your XP machine. Then use that to connect to your Linux machine and transfer your files using its GUI. This solution assumes no more than that you have sshd running on your Linux box (you probably do) and that you know how to address the box and your login name and password.

Now if that is not what you really want, then just tell us what you want instead of beating around the bush.
