00:00hello guys how is it going I wanted to transfer file between two of my

00:06computers and I thought that my source computer from which I want to transfer

00:11files had SSHFS installed on it but I was wrong then I remembered that there

00:16was a trick that I can use in order to access the files on my source computer

00:22from which I want to transfer and it's simply by using SSH only from my file

00:32explorer here I have my file explorer it shows the videos folder so here of course

00:41for this there is one requirement and the piece of software that is used here as an

00:47SSH server is open SSH server it's almost with the same name on Ubuntu and Debian

00:56you install it by running sudo apt install open SSH dash server it's from OpenBSD so

01:07I don't know if it's possible to be done on another SSH server the SSH server is the

01:16thing that's going to be accessed here where we can transfer files I don't

01:23know if it's possible to be done on Dropbear for example this thing is going to

01:27be done using Linux I don't think it's possible on some of the old Windows

01:35machines unless I guess there is a way to do it on Windows 10 so you type SSH

01:43colon double forward slash the username in my case it's Ali at and the IP the IP

01:53address let me guess my IP address for my server this thing is done locally you may

02:02need extra things in order to do it remotely when the computer the server here

02:09that you want to access is on another network when we say another network we

02:13mean a different different router it's connected using a different router that's

02:23how you know if it's on the same network or a different one all right I found my IP

02:32address although the destination machine or the server here has SSHFS installed on

02:38it I will still demonstrate this with you so 10.0.1.43 I still didn't change the

02:49default port for my SSH server you may need to specify it by typing colon and then the

02:59port in my case it's still the same I can simply type 22 enter and then select

03:04login anyway since this is done for the first time on this machine the client one

03:09from which we're gonna access and then here you type the password of the user

03:14that you used that's on the server and then enter and here we are you can see

03:21that we are accessing the route for the route path which is forward slash this is

03:29not good so far there may be some things to be done in order to make sure that it

03:35is only on the users home folder and prevent any path before it any path

03:46underneath like the route or the home directory or folder here are my

03:52directories that are under slash home such you can of course here create files

04:01make files you can for example select new folder I can call it one I don't know if

04:07it's possible yeah it's not here since the folders that are accessed aren't

04:14writable by the user himself we can try here I guess it's not possible here one

04:20enter yeah we need to go to our so despite the fact that we can access the

04:27route folder which needs to be hidden aren't able to write stuff unless we are

04:38within the user folders that he can write onto so we can make here a new folder call it one for

04:48example enter we can delete it for example and there you go it's deleted anyway this

04:55is that's all from me please subscribe if you don't mind like or dislike the video
