Comment on How do you manage your server files?

• vegetaaaaaaa@lemmy.world ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  sftp://USERNAME@SERVER:PORT in the address bar of most file managers will work. You can omit the port if it’s the default (22), you can omit the username if it’s the same as your local user.

  You can also add the server as a favorite/shortcut in your file manager sidebar (it works at least in Thunar and Nautilus). Or you can edit ~/.config/gtk-3.0/bookmarks directly:

  file:///some/local/directory
  file:///some/other/directory
  sftp://my.example.org/home/myuser my.example.org
  sftp://my.example.net/home/otheruser my.example.net

  I would recommend you mention “graphical” or “GUI” in your main post. Most suggestions to be assuming CLI.

  Some suggestions mentioned NFS / SSHFS. Those would allow you to use any GUI file manager for moving stuff over.

  Sorry I can’t help more. Don’t have a lot of knowledge in gui tools

  How exactly are you “losing” files?

    Loose, not lose

    I’m not losing them, I have a lot of single files. For example during a Minecraft update, I have to move ~20 jar files and other things to the server. I also try to make frequent backups and I upload new movies somewhat frequently to my jellyfin server, so I want to have an easy way to transfer files.
