@linuxtoday I always use SCP at home. It's because I live in the terminal, except for Firefox. :)
@linuxtoday SFTP, just make the user have /bin/false so only for File Transfer
@linuxtoday I use SCP whenever I need to copy few files from the same folder to one location, whereas I use SFTP for far more complex transfers. Different tools for different needs IMHO.
@linuxtoday SCP because you don't need to be on the server to put or get a file.
