SSH won’t start at boot on Kali 2.0?

Don’t worry, it’s because Kali 2.x is based on Debian 8, as opposed to Kali 1.x being based on Debian 7.

Kali 1.x uses init/update-rc.d;
For Kali 1.x, the command is

update-rc.d ssh enable

Kali 2.x uses systemd/systemctl
For Kali 2.x, the command is

systemctl enable ssh.service

Example if you want to VNC to a server on your network.

ssh:
ssh -L 17552:192.168.1.22:5901 [email protected] -p 22

ssh -L localport-you-will-direct-your-program-at:internal-vncserver-ip:port-of-servers-service-you-are-connecting-to-through-the-tunnel ssh-username@yourinternetfacing-servers-ip -p opened-port-of-the-public-facing-ssh-server

vncviewer:
localhost:17552

You can copy the content of a folder /source to another existing folder /dest with the command

cp -a /source/. /dest/

The -a option is an improved recursive option, that preserve all file attributes, and also preserve symlinks.

The . at end of the source path is a specific cp syntax that allow to copy all files and folders, included hidden ones.

I like command like consistency, ssh and sftp have some variations.
One key one is port switching.
Here is the difference:

sftp -o Port=[port] [user]@[server]

ssh [user]@[server] -p [port]

Nautalus:
smb://<servername>/<sharename>/

Terminal:
For sftp style connectivity:
smb://<servername>/<sharename>/

Mount a remote samba drive to your locally created mount directory:
mount -t smbfs -o username=<username> //<servername>/<sharename> /mnt/point/
