What worked for me was:
o ftp the desired files from my machine into /tmp on skiffcluster
o from the 'guest' account on skiffcluster do an ftp to skiffcluster using
the 'ftp' account
  and copy the files locally from /tmp to the desired directory using this
local ftp
o still in the local ftp session delete the no longer needed files in /tmp

Best regards
Robert
