SCP

SCP is similar to the CP or copy command, but it’s done via a secure network.

Here’s a CP command.

cp /dir1/filename /dir2

cp /dir1/filename /dir2

You can use SCP to copy file to another system. It requires login.

scp /dir1/filename user@server:/home/user

scp /dir1/filename user@server:/home/user

This is using SCP to copy a file from 2 remote systems.

scp user@host1:/home/user/dir1/file.txt user@host2:/home/user/dir2

scp user@host1:/home/user/dir1/file.txt user@host2:/home/user/dir2

About Me

I'm Ulysses, a Cloud Engineer at Cardinal Health based in Columbus, Ohio. I’m a certified AWS Solutions Architect. This website is my way of documenting the things I have learned in the Cloud. When off the grid, I enjoy riding my electric skateboard. I have surfed, snowboarded and played the saxophone in the past. I hope you will find this site helpful. It's powered by WordPress and hosted in AWS LightSail.
