The 'scp' command stands for Secure Copy Protocol and is used to securely transfer files between hosts on a network. It is based on 'ssh' (Secure Shell Protocol) and uses the same security techniques to transfer files between hosts.
The basic syntax for 'scp' command is as follows:
scp [options] [source] [destination]
Suppose you want to transfer a file called 'pass.csv' from your local system to a remote system (with IP address '192.168.1.2') in the '/home' directory. The command would look something like this:
scp pass.csv user@192.168.1.2:/home
However, if you try to execute this command and receive a 'Permission denied' error message, it could mean that you don't have the necessary permissions to write to the remote directory.
In such cases, you would need to either use 'sudo' or 'ssh' to gain superuser access to the remote system or change the permissions of the remote directory using 'chmod' command.
In summary, 'scp' command provides a secure and efficient way to transfer files between hosts on a network. Its various options and flexibility make it a popular choice among system administrators and developers alike. However, it's important to ensure that you have the necessary permissions to access the remote location before using the command.
