Add table: Is FileZilla installed per HPC cluster

[richelbilderbeek]

From last evaluation we received:

The teachers did not always know the answer of the questions:

• Is FileZilla installed on which HPC clusters?
  • Tip: use Thunar on Tetralith to do exactly the same
  • Yes on Dardel or Rackham ...?

My reflections reads:

I agree, as I simply never thought of this question :-) .
Let's answer it!

Add a table:

HPC cluster	Is FileZilla installed?
A	Yes
B	No
C	etc

From the helpful @LinusSch:

I did a quick check:

• Rackham: Has FileZilla
• Tetralith: Has the Thunar file manager, which allows at least SFTP
• Dardel: Has GNOME-files, allowing SFTP (and a few more, see screenshot)

Then again, I think today was a reasonably good introduction to using a terminal for the Windows user with no terminal experience. And the most complete solution for a Windows user is probably to use the WSL, it provides a pretty much one-click install of a CLI Ubuntu VM with smooth access to your windows filesystem, in my (not quite recent) experience.

And a reply from the @bclaremar:

Yes MobaXterm with WSL2 is better, but as a beginner and for the course I hoped that this would be overkill. Even I think it is a pain sett WSL up.
It takes order of an hour for a beginner I think.

I thought that the default terminal when getting MobaXterm had the tools
I get CYGWIN_NT-10.0-22631-WOW64 from uname
It includes tar, gzip, rsync and sftp are all there.

I did not have time to start with a new installation to check

I can run WSL as well but that looks different.
