[04] HOW DO I UPLOAD AND DOWNLOAD FROM THIS SYSTEM?
 
     You can use the sx, sb and sz (XMODEM, YMODEM and ZMODEM) for 
     downloading and rx, rb and rz (XMODEM, YMODEM and ZMODEM) for
     uploading.

     You can download files by saving them into your home directory
     from your mail or newsreader, and then running them through whatever
     conversion programs are necessary to convert them to their original
     form (as discussed in #10 above).  Then you can download them using
     "sz" (Zmodem - recommended), "sb" (Ymodem batch), "sx" (Xmodem), or
     "kermit" (Kermit).  There are help files on all of this stuff posted
     regularly to the respective newsgroups.  Particularly helpful is the
     "How to find sources" posting in alt.sources.wanted.  Some of the
     newsgroups that distribute sources and binaries are alt.sources,
     comp.sources.misc, comp.binaries.ibm.pc, alt.binaries.pictures.misc,
     and there are many others.

     This system offers both ftp and sftp which is ssh's included secure ftp
     
     with ftp and sftp you can upload files by typing in put filename or to 
     download a file you can do so with get filename. if you want to upload
     many files you can use mput or mget to download many file at once.
