Hi all,
I have a testing laptop that i also use as a backup device and while i always used to transfer the files from my main laptop using the windows OS on both with the Ethernet port, now that i am using F22 KDE, i would like to learn how to do it on this distro.
I have heard it's a bit harder to do it with Linux, but i would like to hear suggestions on which is the better way.

Hi, thanks for the answer, but my first try copied the remote file to the remote /home directory.
Any advice on how should be the command in order to copy a remote file to my local drive? Does it has to include my local IP?

I finally learned to mount a remote File System, consider this thread closed.
Thanks, Hernán
Yeah, sshfs is your friend :) I use it all the time!
You can use Dolphin and do sftp://foo.example.com/home/bar/ (which is my preferred method for /browsing/). You can also do that from any KDE/KIO Slave application, which is soooo convenient.
Recently (last couple of years) I have just run the sftp:// when opening files (e.g.: kate/kwrite/etc.) because Dolphin /copies/ the file with a temp name, then opens it in kate ... then it /copies/ it back up to the server. This method is kind of annoying when editing HTML/Programs/etc that you then have to go to the server and run for testing.
The upside for the copying is that Dolphin helps in applications that do not use kio_slave (e.g.: jedit (java), gnome apps) that need to open remote files.
Just my $0.0199999

The thing is, it should copy only for those applications that need it. The .desktop file specifies whether an application accepts any URL (%u) or even multiple ones (%U) or only a local file (%f) / local files (%F).
Doing the copy for applications declared to take one or more URL(s) is a bug in Dolphin and should be reported at bugs.kde.org.
