Copying files from laptop to remote server using SSH
Hello,
I'm sorry if this sounds like a very simple question, but I'm having some difficulty with it being a complete newbie to UNIx. I use Windows, and always have, but need some UNIX access for work, picking up files from our group space, etc.
Basically, I'm using Cygwin and can SSH into the server using my username and password, and can see the files on there. what I'm not sure of is how to copy files from outside the server, i.e from my laptop.
On windows you would simply do something like copy:
12.34.56.78/C/Docs/myfile.txt to 87.65.43.21/myfile.txt.
But with UNIx, and by proxy cygwin, using the whole idea of a home directory, I'm really not sure how the command would be written, or how the directories would work. Also, how do I write a location that is outside the server when in the server directory structure?
I hope this makes sense, and any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
Hussein.
