How To Use The scp Command to Copy a File From Remote to Local (and vice versa)

Learn how securely copy a local file to a remote server or IP with the scp command (as well as download a remote file to your local computer). This tutorial will be working with the Terminal app that's built into Mac and most Linux operating systems.

Perfect! Just what I needed to quickly copy a bunch of audio and video files to my MiniDLNA server straightforward. Thanks a lot, appreciate it.

Excellent resource on how to use scp. So many examples get it wrong *or* complicate things by getting bogged down with unnecessary details. After this I was able to do both remote <--> client copy with ease. Thanks, decided to subscribe as well. 👌

Thank you! My school compiles our files on a RedHat server for grading. We're supposed to FTP our programs to there to make certain they compile, but the professor didn't demonstrate well, and some of the TA's don't know how to do this without a GUI. Halfway through the semester, and you finally teach me what I was supposed to learn in week one! I've been getting away with by installing a Linux distro on my old laptop, but now I know how to do it properly. Thank you again!

You don't wanna know how much time I spent trying to copy from linux server -> Mac while on my server. Never even thought I had to do the scp not on my local terminal. Thanks sm
