Transferring file to local machine when SSHing into a foreign box
One can log into a remote shell via SSH, and one can use an FTP
application to log in via SFTP using the same credentials over SSH.
Why then, can one not initiate a file transfer from the remote host to
the local host when logged into a shell via SSH?
I know that I could use scp or rsync to move the files, but the
requires authenticating which is not something that I can always do
from the host.
