'''Files transferred over Shell protocol''' ('''FISH''') is a network [[Protocol (computing)|protocol]] that uses [[Secure Shell]] (SSH) or [[Remote Shell]] (RSH) to [[file transfer |transfer files]] between computers and manage remote files.

The advantage of FISH is that all it requires on the server-side is an SSH or RSH implementation, [[Unix shell]], and a set of standard [[Unix]] utilities (like [[ls]], [[cat (Unix)|cat]] or [[dd (Unix)|dd]]). Optionally, there can be a special FISH server program (called ''start_fish_server'') on the server, which executes FISH commands instead of Unix shell and thus speeds up operations.
