Type the command:
ftp servername
File transfer protocol (ftp) is the standard cross-platform interactive tool for file transfers. Provide your username and password when prompted. The ftp session will begin.
Enter the command:
sftp servername
Secure ftp (sftp) uses an encrypted session, making it a better choice for unsecured networks.
Use the remote command copy (rcp) of BSD on trusted, secured networks only. The basic syntax is:
rcp
.
rcp file1 linuxhost2:/temp
Secure copy (scp) is an encrypted version of rcp. The transfer is sent over an encrypted Secure Shell (ssh) session. The syntax is essentially the same:
scp linuxhost2:/temp/file2 /var/tmp
Copy or synchronize entire directories, using the rsync command:
rsync -oupgrle ssh /local/directory host2:/remote/directory
Check the manual page for rsync to describe the options listed.

Changing a DNSIn Feburary 2016 09,
In Feburary 2016 09,
Log into your domain registry account with your administrator login and password. Open the records for the domain that you wish to work with. You open these records via a prompt that is sometimes known as 'Account Manager' or 'Control Panel,' or you may alternately be prompted to click directly on the name of the domain itself.
Unlock your domain. There is an 'Unlock' icon or prompt on most control panels or account managers. Alternately, you will notice an icon or prompt for unlocking next to your domain name.
Open the DNS nameserver records for your domain name. Prompts for this function include 'Change DNS records,' 'Edit DNS records,' or a simple list of two or more nameservers beginning with the letters 'NS'.
Delete the present nameserver addresses. Replace these with at least 2 nameserver addresses that were provided to you by your hosting company. The mandatory nameserver addresses begin with 'NS1' and 'NS2' and can include the name of the hosting company, the address of your site, or any other address, followed by a suffix such as .com or .net.
Save your changes by clicking the 'Save' button or icon on your registry records manager. Relock your domain.
Wait 48 hours before verifying that your DNS changes have indeed propagated. If your website is not visible after 48 hours, contact your hosting company technical support service.
