File server for uploading sample files
Whenever I ask someone to upload a sample file, I prefer the upload is done to my own server. It is reachable via SFTP (SSH file transfer protocol) and HTTPS. For the transfer of large files SFTP is very much preferred as it allows for resuming interrupted uploads.
Please place the file(s) in a folder whose name contains the issue number you upload them for. Thanks.
Note: You can only upload to this server, not download from it.
Transfer via SFTP
There are several Open Source SFTP clients for all operating systems out there. Linux and macOS come with the command-line utility "sftp" included. For Windows I suggest WinSCP, a small but powerful Open Source program capable of using all modern features of SSH/SFTP.
