Linux amateurs, Linux haters or simply easy goers.. whichever category you belong to, WinSCP is the natural tool for File Transfer within the device or to or from the device. Not a big fan of Linux commands myself (though I seem have gained some serious expertise, thanks to my messing around with my Checkpoint installations and upgrades), I prefer using WinSCP wherever I can. However, every now and then, WinSCP has its own way of complaining about the target shell compatibility, which it cannot connect. Something like this: How do I get around it? Simple, just login to your Checkpoint device, via CLISH, change to BASH shell and enter: " chsh -s /bin/bash admin" And that's it! Try connecting via WinSCP again and bamm.. you are in!! Happy WinSCPing :)
