I have a windows machine. I installed PuTTY software. In PuTTY configuration section I gave Host name of our college server. Host name is like magnolia.collegename.edu. My college admin create a user id and password for me. So when I give host name and port number which is 22 I can login to the college sever. A command line screen appear and I need to put username and password there and I am able to login. So this is a magnolia server. I have a hello.c file. I have to transfer this file from my hard disk to that server. How could I do that? Is there any tutorial or Youtube video available. I searched with keyword like file transferring from hard disk to magnolia but did not get any good result. If any one has any idea please share with me. Thank you.

Im a newb to AWS, so please go easy on me. We currently just spun up a custom Windows 10 instance in AWS. I was able to login via RDP successfully, but I'd like to create a new user within the instance so they can login with a different user account using RDP. Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
Okay, After your response to my first, I think I see what you are asking. Plase watch this video:

Download the RDP. Save it. You can then Edit the .rdp and enter the user name and password you created in Windows.
You can create users in the User Management Console in Windows. Ensure they have the rights needed (Remote Desktop User, Administrator, etc).
Enjoy!
Once an Amazon EC2 Windows instance has been launched, it is just a normal Windows computer.
Therefore, you should use use the standard Admin tools to create the user on the Windows computer, with their own username and password.
It is also recommended that you change the random Administrator password after initial login, or (even better) connect the instance to Active Directory or whatever standard authentication system your company uses.
Technoob here. I just figured out why all of you are having trouble. You need to go to the security group the machine is a part of and open port 3389 to your public IP address (ipchicken.com works). Enjoy
If you are trying to connect from another computer then you have to change the inbound rules.
Go to the security groups of your instance. Go to the inbound rules. Add ipv4 and ipv6 as a new rule and apply it. Download the RDP File and try to connect again. It worked for me.
I've searched a lot of websites and have found no answers. How can I create just a normal FTP account (which can be used on Port 22 for Filezilla aswell as the SSH) that is in the folder "/home/hisname"? I want it to only be able to make files in that directory and run them, and make it so he can't mess with any other parts of the system.
I've really been searching all morning. Please help.
As long as you have an FTP server installed, a regular user should be able to use it in authenticated mode - no special qualities needed.
https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/ftp-server.html
This depends on which ftp daemon you use. Normally, FTP accounts are just the normal accounts you use to log in to your machine. You can change a standard user's login directory by modifying /etc/passwd, for example, or when creating the new user.
I am using Windows 2012 R2 VM machine in Azure. I have read multiple article to setup Filezilla server in this environment. However, I am not successful. Any one faced this issue? Any solution will be greatly appreciated.
Just remember to add Filezilla to Windows Firewall :-)
I'm dealing with the same thing right now. locally the FTP serv works great. remote I cannot establish a passive connection. Based on my research this is because Azure is not set up for Passive-FTP. I am uncertain if we can get FileZilla to operate in a active-FTP mode. Will post back if I ever get to the bottom of it. Mine currently connects and authenticates but 'cannot retrieve directory listing' when it tries to kick over to passive (transfer) mode.
In addition to checking the Virtual Machine endpoints are open, be sure to also add the appropriate Windows Firewall rules if you have Windows Firewall enabled on your Windows VM.
Yes, We can connect to Azure server via FileZilla Client.
Steps:
Login to Azure portal: https://portal.azure.com
Click on App Services.
Select the Site and then click on Get publish profile.
Save the file and open it in notepad.exe.
The file contains 2 <publishProfile> sections. One is for Web Deploy and another for FTP.
Under the <publishProfile> section for FTP make a note of the following values:
publishUrl (hostname only)
userName --------------------------> This is the information you are looking for
userPWD
Add the PublishUrl to Hostname, Username and password in their respective fields.
Connected.

I tried searching on net for hours but couldn't get any useful answer. It would be of great help if I could be provided with a code accomplishing this.
I have IP address of a remote server which is password protected (it needs user name and password to login)
I need to write a code in VB.NET that creates a folder in this remote server and copies a file from local server (in which the code is executing) to the remote server.
thanks in advance
This is not technically possible, its a way of hacking.
Thats why we have other technology to do it i.e. FTP, SFTP, Webdav.
I would suggest you to do same, use either of above technologies and do your stuff.
After a long research here on Stackoverflow and on net I didn't found nothing talking about it. As the title say, how can I do that?
For example: I am owner of a hosted website that allow me to manage the database via PhpMyAdmin. When I try to connect to my database via prompt, the connection never go fine. It could be because of OS settings (right?).
How can I do that (in both OSs).
Thanks in advance.
If I understand your question correctly:
You have a website with a MySql database hosted on your providers servers.
When you try to use your local PC installation of MySql from a command prompt, it will not let you connect.
I use dreamhost.com and have a similar setup. If I want to use database tools from my local PC to connect to the database, I have to enter my IP address in the db configuration page under "allowed hosts".
Restricting remote database connections to specific IP addresses protects your database from random hacking attempts.
As for your question about restricting command line execution of a program, that is usually just caused by missing configuration information in the environment variables - leaving the path to the executable out of the PATH variable is a common one. You would still be able to run the program if you enter the full path to it.
It really depends on the error message you get when trying to run the program from the command line.
