Unix Admin: FTP SFTP SSH FTPS
A comment says there are not private keys. Let's try, anyway. ... Add connection, sftp type... On the line that says "login/password", press and select "public/private key". But you have to enter the path to the key, so I don't know how to generate and add that file. Same problem as on TurboFTP. And no documentation. I defined an ssh terminal to my laptop here, on the local LAN. I see the connection on the laptop firewall log.
Which is very confusing, because on the tablet I get a terminal that doesn't respond.
Ah, I see, the password has to be stored in the configuration. If empty, it doesn't ask for it. Now I do get a working terminal.
I add an sftp connection to the same laptop, succeeds. I can see some directories, but gives an error on connecting to my own home. Invalid descendent file name, I think. On tap a file it attempts to open it (and fails because it is too big). I see no option to download.
It does not seem that UnixAdmin is a valid tool for downloading files.
** Trying again Total Commander **
I define a local LAN connection to my laptop, and tell it to download a file of 600MB. I see gkrellm on the laptop that it is going at 810K/S!! At this rate it is going to take ages.
I fear I will abandon this project. At speeds that low it is not worth it.

Even worse!
On download end, several (many) minutes later, it insisted on displaying the file. I said "open with total commander". It played the file, which happened to be a video. I exited the viewer, which returned to TC, which immediately said that it was deleting the temporary file!
Then, there is no way to just download a file using sftp. Besides being terribly slow, it enforces "open".
Try with a small file. Options (long tap) are:
Rename Delete Download+Open with Download+Edit Properties Copy to clipboard Cut to clipboard.
Well, copy to clipboard... then paste on the destination directory. That does a copy. How awkward...
