Time for action – uploading a guest ISO image to your headless server
In this exercise, you'll learn how to use an FTP client to upload the Ubuntu 9.10 Desktop ISO image to your Ubuntu headless server so that you can later create a remote virtual machine.
Open a web browser window on your Windows desktop PC, type http://filezilla-project.org/download.php?type=client to go to the FileZilla FTP client downloads web page, and then click on the download link for the Windows platform:
Download the file, and double-click on it to install the FileZilla client on your Windows desktop PC. Once the installation process finishes, open the FileZilla client, and type the IP address of your Ubuntu headless server on the Host field, along with your username and password. Then click on the Quick connect button:
If the connection is successful, you'll see your account's home directory listing on the right hand side (the Remote Site panel) of the FileZilla window, as the above screenshot shows.
