Is there something similar to scp for tunneling over RDP?

Similar to how you can scp over ssh, is there something similar for over rdp?

I'm currently using the \tsclient\ (i.e. mapped drives) when on the remote server. But I wondering if there is a way of doing something similar triggered from the client (similar to how SCP works?).

I realise I could install FTP, WebDav etc, but just wondering if there is a built in tool.

i'm perhaps not understanding your question 'cos it has been a while with these tools. but why not map drive and share it, within RDP? You mention FTP so surely mapping a drive is as good? unless perhaps.. is it encryption you want? or command line? – barlop – 2013-03-18T15:56:12.060

No, there is no client initiated copy functionality without using 3rd party tools other than what the clipboard can handle.

You can share your local drive(s) over rdp and they will show up as network mapped shares on the remote side. You can copy on the remote side into/from them.

EDIT: Misunderstood the original question. The above is what the questioner currently uses.

1That is the \\tsclient solution he said he is already currently doing, and he was asking if there was a solution other than that. – Scott Chamberlain – 2013-03-18T16:02:56.327

Thanks Bgs, Scott is right that's the tsclient solution - I've updated my question with more detail. – Alex KeySmith – 2013-03-18T16:11:53.367

I see. The \tsclient\ wasn't obvious to me. Now it's clear. Now I agree with Scott as well... :) – Bgs – 2013-03-18T16:31:33.993
