  • Secure File Transfer on Linux

  • SCP is used to securely copy and retrieve files from a host.

    To upload a file from the local system
    scp  SourceFile username@hostname:folder/TargetFile

    To upload a directory from the local system
    scp -r SourceDir username@hostname:TargetDir

    To retrieve a file from the remote system
    scp username@hostname:folder/SourceFile TargetFile


    SFTP is used to securely connect to a host and interactively transfer files. It can also be used in the same manner and format as scp. NOTE: SFTP cannot copy directories.

    To connect to a host using sftp
    sftp hostname

    Once connected, a call to help will show you the commands available
    help

    But the basic command to retrieve a file will be
    get path/SourceFilename

    And the basic command to upload a file will be
