I tried to upload my website to my Pi using Filezilla and it sent all the files that had 8-bit encoded filenames and failed sending any files that had Unicode file names. It failed saying "could not start transfer." Now that's almost as good as Microsoft errors.

I tried setting it for binary files. Nope, no go. I use Vsftp as the server. Any ideas?

To SSH into your Raspberry Pi from PuTTy: Open PuTTy. Under Host Name (or IP address), enter your Raspberry Pi's IP address or hostname. Make sure that Port is set to 22. ... Under Connection type, select SSH. Select Open, and enter your username and password.

Oh, thanks, I didn't know I could use ssh to transfer files. I'll give that a try.

You can't. Use SCP. If you're talking to it from a windows system, use WinSCP.

Yeah, this is the right answer. No idea what derp was suggesting. Looks like bad output from a gpt or Google search.

rsync FTW

rsync -av ./somedir pi@192.168.1.10:/var/www/

-a : archive {preserve owner group, recursive etc} -v : verbose
