Hi,

I have to get the list of files from my remote server to my local machine.

i tried using such as scp uname@server1:/path/to/dir file1 file2 ./

But i got only the file1 and its saying file2 not found eventhough its there in remote machine.

can anyone please help how to get the listed files using scp command.
