<h1>SCP</h1>
|
||
|
|
<h2>What is SCP?</h2>
|
||
|
|
I think that you are familiar with "cp command", so SCP stand for "secure copy".
|
||
|
|
<br> You have to know that the only difference between "cp" and "scp" is that you use cp command into your
|
||
|
|
<br> local machine and scp if one or both the location are on the remote system.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<pre>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
cp /home/SA/course/images.jpg /home/SA/MY
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As you can see from the example above we use cp, to copy images from folder course into folder "MY"
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now, we see the same example but using scp command
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<pre>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
scp /home/SA/course/images.jpg marwan@myhost.com:/home/SA/MY
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Where marwan it's just an example(my real name..), you have to use you real host.
|
||
|
|
<br> This operation require passsword before upload.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<pre>
|
||
|
|
scp marwan@myhost.com:/home/SA/My/image1.jpg /home/SA/downloads
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As you can see from the above example, with this command you can download image1.jpg from remote
|
||
|
|
<br> directory to your local (in this case downloads folder)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<pre>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
scp marwan@myhost.com:/home/user/dir1/sa.txt marwan@myhost.com:/home/SA/course
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In this example we move sa.txt from remote directory to another remote directory.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<br><h3>Other example of using scp with options</h3>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You have to know that you can use scp command with some options, such as -1, -2 and so on.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<pre>
|
||
|
|
<p>-1 to use scp with protocol 1 </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>-2 to use scp with protocol 2 </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>-3 to copy between 2 remote passing through local(like example above) </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>-4 to use scp with IPv4 addresses </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>-6 Guess..? to use scp with Ipv6 addresses </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>-C to enable compression of the encrypted connection </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>-c to encrypt data transfer (C and c is not the same options) </p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>Good, now you are able to copy and move files between remote system</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
</p>
