It is a command line utility which works almost exactly like 'cp', which is used to copy files from one location to another on the same machine. For instance, if I am sitting in front of my iMac at home and want to transfer the file foo.bar to the machine in my office, I type: scp foo.bar romstad@europa.uio.no:~/some/directory/ The file is then copied to the directory ~/some/directory/ on my office machine. >Can the average non-unix user make use of it? I know very few average non-unix users, but I suspect that they wouldn't like it. However, I am sure there are lots of user-friendly graphical front ends to scp. After a quick Google search I found the following program: http://rsug.itd.umich.edu/software/fugu/ I haven't tried it, but it looks good (and is free). Tord
