I like scp. If your doing this from a windoze box, I recommmend WinSCP.
Otherwise, it's as simple as scp <pathtocopy>
user@<iporhostname>:<directorytocopyto>
i.e. scp ~/readme.txt user@kalamazoolinux.org:~/stuff/

I believe you have to use scp. Or at least that's what I do.

ssh doesn't have that functionality, but "screen" does (if you
haven't used it, I highly recommend taking a look).
