Unix & Linux Asked by Beakal Begashaw on December 4, 2020
How do I send files or directories to my school’s remote server from my ubuntu desktop. I have tried everything from youtube and everything keeps on giving me a lost connection when I try to run the command.
This is the command i tried:
scp filename username@ipaddress:/users/students/username
You can use Rsync in Terminal. Rsync is a program similar to scp, providing syncrosization over the network. You can sync folders and files to a remote computer with the template below.
rsync -a ~/filedir user@remote_host:destination_dir
If you type this command, you will "push" the files to the opposite server.
If you want to "pull" from the host server, you can use the command below:
rsync -a user@remote_host:/dest_dir local_dir
With the SSH services of the target and source machines active, Rsync must be installed on both machines.
You can find more information about rsync on its manual page.
