I recall hearing about scp and in responding to Brian, I had looked for
it, but couldn't find a package for it. It turns out that I already had
it installed as part of the Debian ssh package (I use ssh quite a bit
to access remote hosts.) I just tried some file transfers with scp and
it works great. It is handier to use than a ftp client, much like
wget.
Thanks,
Bob, N7XY
