Solution
scp username@source:/location/to/file username@destination:/where/to/put
- You can read man scp to get more ideas on this.
scp -r
will copy recursively.
Example
If you are on the computer from which you want to send file to a remote computer:
scp /file/to/send username@remote:/where/to/put
Here the remote can be a FQDN or an IP address.
On the other hand if you are on the computer wanting to receive file from a remote computer:
scp username@remote:/file/to/send /where/to/put
scp can also send files between two remote hosts:
scp username@remote_1:/file/to/send username@remote_2:/where/to/put
