Copy Data using SSH Tunneling

If a default ssh tunneling was configured correctly. Data can be copied to and from a remote host as follows:

# Copy TO Remote Host
$ scp <my-local-file> <host-nickname>:/<remote-directory>/

# Copy FROM Remote Host
$ scp <host-nickname>:/<my-remote-file> /<my-local-directory>/

scp with sudo files from a remote host to another remote host

“-C /tmp/a” can be used when you wanted to “cd /tmp/a”

ssh source.tudelft.nl sudo tar cf - -C /tmp/a . | ssh target.tudelft.nl  sudo tar xvf - -C /tmp/b/
