If the way you login to the other computer is with ssh, then I'd suggest
using Net::SFTP (available as a gem)

If it's UNIX/Linux, use scp . If it's Windows, expect you can use file shares
(or just stick it on a webserver and pull it down with a browser).

i have this problem with net::sftp:
code:
require 'net/ssh'
require 'net/sftp'
session = Net::SSH.start("machine1","administrator","baubau")

I have this error:
c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/net-ssh-2.0.4/lib/net/ssh.rb:151:in
`start': undefined method `keys' for "baubau":String (NoMethodError)
  from connect.rb:10

The machine1 is up and the password is a valid one.

According to the docs for SSH (and also SFTP), the third parameter
should be a Hash...

session = Net::SSH.start("machine1", "administrator", :password => "baubau")

...or for SFTP...

session = Net::SFTP.start("machine1", "administrator", :password => "baubau")

Try it outside of ruby first (in unix shell)...

sftp administrator@machine1
