Or better yet get putty. It supports SSH 2 with public key authentication. And is small enough that you can put a key the client and the scp and sftp (FTP tunnled through SSH) client on ~2 floppies It can be run from the floppy and can connect to any SSH server has a lot of very cool features. Use the devel snapshot to do SSH 2 with public keys.
I *think* you can just put it on a share somewhere, and then map a drive to that share and run putty off of it. I reckon it depends on if you have access to the floppy, to mapping drives, either, or neither.

Can anyone suggest a way to scp from a machine where I'm not
allowed to install scp?  (For example, win98 and win2000 machines
in our libraries)


Here's a start:

http://www.isnetworks.net/ssh/

It's an SSH/SCP applet.  If you could load it on your own machine,
then you could access it over the web and run SCP through the applet
-- no installation necessary.  Only problem is, to overcome Java
Applet sandbox restrictions, you need to sign the applet (this is done
for you), and accept that signature in Netscape (which you probably
can't do on a public machine).

Anybody want to donate a CA-signed version of this applet that would
be trusted by browsers??
