trying to copy through server
 

Hey im trying to copy a file from a server i don't know what i am doing wrong please help.
this is what i did:

cp ~stauffer/cs115/timeTest.cpp.

where timeTest.cpp is the file im wanting copied into my place? - Please help thank you

I see several things wrong in the above.

correct notation would be: "cp [remote directory]/timeTest.cpp ." (notice the space before the trailing period)

If your remote directory is /server/tiny/ then it would be "cp /server/tiny/timeTest.cpp ."

hey thanks so much i really appreciate i just needed the space :) Wow okay thank you so much you don't know how happy I am it was bugging me for like an hour...man that is sad but thanks!
