In the past I've uploaded files from my local machine using FTP. Now I'm trying to upload files to Galaxy that are stored on a remote machine which I ssh into. I'm using rsync which I've never used before so maybe I'm doing something wrong. Here is the command I'm using:
rsync <localFile> <myEmailAddress>@usegalaxy.org:/
It seems to connect fine, it displays:
<myEmailAddress>@usegalaxy.org's password:
I type in my password and it just says Permission denied, try again.
My password works fine when connecting with my FTP program or when logging in to the site normally.
Also if there is a better way to transfer files from a remote machine to Galaxy please let me know.

Hi,
I think you can also use FTP to transfer your data from the remote computer to Galaxy.
Thank you, ftp is working. I would prefer sftp but doesn't seem to be an option for Galaxy.
