To upload data (file) type the following in to a terminal on your computer:

scp FILE xx111@bcni.psychol.cam.ac.uk:/target/address

To upload a folder, type the same, this time adding in a -r before the folder name, i.e.;

scp -r FOLDER xx111@bcni/psychol.cam.ac.uk:/target/address

To download files or folders just do things in reverse, i.e.

scp xx111@bcni.psychol.cam.ac.uk:/file/address/file /target/address/on/your/computer

In each case you will be prompted for your server password.
