Unit 8: Moving Data |
Dennis Tenen |
6/19/15 |
In this section we will learn how to move data between local and remote machines, to sync, and to back up files across the network.
# remote to local
# it seems obvious in retrospect, but the directions assume you are working
# This will copy the file from your current local directory to some path on your
# your remote, starting with the home directory for `your_username`. Use -r flag
# to move a directory vs. file.
# the remote path is relative to the home directory (the stuff after the colon)
scp [email protected]:path/to/foobar.txt /some/local/directory`
# local to remote
scp foobar.txt [email protected]:some/path/on/your/server
# with keys
scp -i /path/keys.pem source target
# rsync
