OpenSSH : SSH File Transfer (CentOS)2022/01/07

 
It's possible to transfer files via SSH.
[1] It's the example for using SCP (Secure Copy).
# command ⇒ scp [Option] Source Target
# copy the [test.txt] on localhost to remote host [node01.srv.world]

[cent@dlp ~]$
scp ./test.txt cent@node01.srv.world:~/

cent@node01.srv.world's password:     # password of the user
test.txt                                      100%   10     0.0KB/s   00:00

# copy the [/home/cent/test.txt] on remote host [node01.srv.world] to the localhost

[cent@dlp ~]$
scp cent@node01.srv.world:/home/cent/test.txt ./test.txt

cent@node01.srv.world's password:
test.txt                                      100%   10     0.0KB/s   00:00
[2] It's the examples to use SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol).
SFTP server feature is enabled by default, but if not, enable it to add the line [Subsystem sftp /usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server] in [/etc/ssh/sshd_config].
# sftp [Option] [user@host]

[redhat@dlp ~]$
sftp cent@node01.srv.world

cent@node01.srv.world's password:    # password of the user
Connected to node01.srv.world.
