Figure 11-18 shows the gFTP client. To connect to a remote system, click on Remote Connect, identify the system’s hostname, specify any necessary userid or password, and click on Connect. To upload a file, click on the name of the file in the local list box at the left of the window and then click on . To download a file, click on the name of the file in the list box at the right of the window and then click on . When you’ve transferred all your files, click on Remote Disconnect.
