== How do I... Using scp ==

Files can be easily copied between any two Linux systems with working ssh services using scp, which is an abbreviation for secure copy. You can use the scp command on the source computer, destination computer, or even from a computer without any association with the files in question. To perform the operations, you will need a working user account on both the source and destination computers with sufficient read and write access to the target files and folders. [http://www.hypexr.org/linux_scp_help.php | Here] is a page with some simple scp examples.

In a nutshell, the syntax for scp is as follows. Logically, it's a hybrid of ssh and cp syntax, as one would expect.
'''$''' scp [-flags] ''source'' ''destination''
If I wanted to copy all of the png files in ''/home/gr0x0rd/files/My Documents/icons/'' from the computer ''teletran4'' to ''/home/gr0x0rd/files/icons/'' on the computer ''moonbase3'', I would use the following command:
'''$''' scp -r -P 2112 "/home/gr0x0rd/files/My Documents/icons/" gr0x0rd@moonbase3:/home/gr0x0rd/files/icons/
Notice the -r flag, which stands for recursive, since the target source is a directory, and the -P flag followed by 2112, since the ssh port on the target machine is different than the default, as recommended in this guide.
