Sftp is great, and also loaded up by default is 'scp', which is the
Secure 'copy' program. From *nix to *nix, it is an effective way to copy
files to/from remote computers just as if they were local file systems:

>From local to remote

# scp thisfile steve at remote.domain.com:/home/steve

and to copy from remote to local:

# scp steve at remote.domain.com:/home/steve/thisfile /home/steve
