how to transfer files from windows to linux using winscp?

every time i put my host name, user name and password, it displays, "can't connect" , wat should i do about that? :roll: [/b]

The linux system must be running a SSH server.

I had a similar problem when I am at work. Its Firewall stops all outgoing FTP connections.

cheers

Please read documentation. If that does not help, come back.

I have been working at this a while and have been unsuccessful.
I am trying to have a windows task run each evening, to copy a Windows share, connecting to a Centos machine, every evening. help!

You have to tell us what is the actual problem. What does not work? Any error message? What did you try?
Did you follow this guide?
