If you are running OpenSSH on the client and server, then just
use:
sftp <server ip>
That will connect to the server via SSH and give you a nice FTP-like
interface fortransfering files. All part of the OpenSSH package.

There's also scp which allows you to move files
between any two hosts running SSH. It's a command-line tool and you use
it like so: scp
<user>@<host>:/path/to/remote/file /place/to/store/locally
scp /path/to/local/file
<user>@<host>:/place/to/store/remotely

For more info on SSH, check the man pages. The above is
just the tip of the iceberg. :)
