Using SFTP
Trinity Galaxy has a running SFTP server where you can deposit large files that you need to use in your analysis. This allows you to use secure protocols to move your data to Galaxy.
Use an SFTP client to move your files onto the server. Graphical clients include FileZilla for many platforms, WinSCP for Windows and Cyberduck for the Mac.
Use the following settings to make the connection:
- Protocol: SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol)
- Server: galaxy.ncgas-trinity.indiana.edu
- Port: 2222
- Credentials: You must use your Galaxy username (email) and password to authenticate for the file transfer
- Path: Upload your files to the uploads directory, and download files from the downloads directory
If you cannot access the server or if you experience problems moving the files, please contact NCGAS for assistance.
