I know others have responded with scp, rsync and others, but I'm not
sure if they are the answer to the question you're asking.  If you can
have a terminal session, but no other network connectivity, then kermit
might be what you're looking for.  It allows you to transfer a file
across an already existing session (like telnet or ssh for example).

It's a little strange to use the first time or two, but it can get the
job done.  Availability is another issue altogeather, though many unixes
support kermit.

A quick search on google turned up this:
