File Transfer (in-progress)

  • scp

    • Allows you to transfer files between a local and remote host. It does this by leveraging ssh.

    • Shares the same syntax as the normal cp command.

# Transfer from local computer to remote computer

scp <source file> <username>@<remote host>:<destination>

scp agenda.txt asoberan@luria.mit.edu:/home/asoberan/unxiclass

# Transfer from remote computer to local computer

scp <username>@<remote host>:<source file> <destination>

scp asoberan@luria.mit.edu:/home/asoberan/arrayDat.txt .
