How to Connect and Publish to DUNX1 with sFTP (Windows)
Note: Before you connect to DUNX1 you need to have a DUNX1 account (an Academic Unix account). If you don't have one (or aren't sure), you can go to picking up a DUNX1 account to find out how to get one.
You can use any sFTP software with your DUNX1 account. More information about Secure Share can be found here: https://www.ssh.com/ssh.
The below examples use FileZilla, a free file transfer application.
