Download and install FlashFXP then use that to connect to your server via SSH. Check image below:

I see. In that case, do the following:

yum install httpd

(assuming it's centos. Use 'apache2' instead of 'httpd' if it's ubuntu)

Move your files to apache's default directory (different under ubuntu) which is commonly located under:
/var/www/html

mv /current/location/of/file /var/www/html/

Then download them using your IP address:

http://ip.add.re.ss/file.ext

Make sure you've started the httpd server:

service httpd start

you can use below command, it's the best and easy way )


scp /path/to/my.file me@serverB:/path/to/destination/my.file

if the backup is in a public_html accessable folder you should be able to wget it.

When backups are generated there usually chmod000 or similar, chmod it to 755 and try
