Using FileZilla

FileZilla is a freely available SFTP client. You can download a copy from their website: http://filezilla-project.org.

To transfer data from your local computer to HPC using FileZilla, follow these steps:

  1. Go to File -> Site Manager in the menu bar at the top of the program.
  2. Click New Site in the lower left-hand corner and give this connection a name. The name is for your reference only.
  3. Click the General tab in Site Manager.
  4. Type hpc.sydney.edu.au in the Host field.
  5. Leave the port blank.
  6. Select the SFTP protocol in the protocol field.
  7. Select Normal in the logon type field.
  8. Type your UniKey in the User field.
  9. Type your UniKey password in the Password field.
  10. Click Connect.
  11. An Unknown host key box will pop up. Click Always trust this host, add this key to the cache box and then click OK.

If you successfully logged on, you will see a message saying “Directory listing of “/home/abcd1234” successful”.

To transfer data between HPC and your local computer, drag and drop files between the left-hand side (local files) and the right-hand side (HPC files).
