I am trying to copy a directory and everything in it from one server to another.
No matter what I type into SCP, it just gives me back:
usage: scp [-1246BCpqrv] [-c cipher] [-F ssh_config] [-i identity_file]
[-l limit] [-o ssh_option] [-P port] [-S program]
I tried:
scp -r -P 1133
root@XX.XX.XX.XX:/home/images
Shouldn't that recursively copy /home/images from the server XX.XX.XX.XX through SSH on port 1133?
Btw - I know you can do it with a tar or just a regular FTP program. The folder I am trying to copy is 40 gig, there isn't enough free space to make a tar (if the server would even do it)
