Found an option in this program I hadn't seen before, network. It lets me "add a connection" for an sftp... type. I'm a geek... kinda... Can somebody tell me what that is? Does it let me see my sdcard on my laptop? Please let me know how to set it up. I tried googling it... but I didn't understand what was being said.
SFTP Stands for Secure File Transfer Protocol. Some Geeks (like me) maintain a server on the Internet so that you can transfer files back and forth to it. SFTP provides a secure avenue to do so (needs a password to access). The way it works is you send a file or set of files to the server. You can also copy files from the server the same way. Then from another computer (like your home computer) you connect to the server and access the files again. The key is you have to have access to the server. Think of it like a safety deposit box that you can access from the Internet. Handy if you keep stuff at home that you want to access anywhere from the Internet.
