<p dir="ltr">Hi,</p>
<p dir="ltr">There is also sshfs, which will allow you to mount the remote machine filesystem over ssh.</p>

If you are not concerned with ultimate privacy dropbox works very well<br />
for the description of what you want to do. I am currently doing this<br />
for a group in Singapore to place files on a machine here in Perth, they<br />
get processed and dropbox syncs the results for them to retrieve.<br />
<br />
For work/home Unison is excellent (I am currently managing ~16G across 3<br />
machines that way) - any of the rsync based systems are good because of<br />
the bandwidth saving.<br />
<br />
For a private dropbox I am testing csync2/lsyncd which is looking like<br />
having the potential to replace unison for my use case.<br />
<br />
Lastly, what is wrong with opening a terminal in vnc and doing an "scp"<br />
if its only a single/few files? - depending on firewall settings this<br />
could be done either way.<br />
