Copying in ssh
 

If I open up a terminal window on linux machine A and ssh over to linux machine B, is there a way I can copy something that is on A over to B while I’m in that ssh session? I thought about setting up an FTP server on A and then ftping from B back over to A but I really don’t want to do that ...

Thanks for any ideas,
Al

securecopy is the app for you.

Check out 'man scp' for usage....

You could try this...

"user@hostname" will be the user and name of the computer you want to send the file to and the ":/home/you" is the directory where the file will be copied to (or where ever you want).
