Hi

What level of access do you have to
the server ? Can you set up Samba on
it (especially if your on an intranet).
They can then, from their windows?
machines do \\server or \\server.ip
and just paste the files over.

Another option may be to initiate
a scp (secure copy) via exec which has
a nice format for copying between
machines.
