Simple copy through SSH

   Posted by: Vlad    in Linux

Copying files between remote machines can be easily done
using SCP command.

The syntax is:

copy from a remote machine to my machine:

scp user@192.168.0.1:/home/file.txt /home/x.txt

copy from my machine to a remote machine:

scp /home/x.txt user@192.168.0.1:/home/x.txt

copy all x*.txt from a remote machine to my machine (x01.txt, x02.txt, etc.)

scp “user@192.168.0.1:/home/x*.txt” /home/x.txt

copy a directory from a remote machine to my machine:

scp -r user@192.168.0.1:/home/folder /home/
