How to download a file from server using SSH? [clo

问题:

I need to download a file from server to my desktop. (UBUNTU 10.04) I don't have a web access to the server, just ssh.

If it helps, my OS is Mac OS X and iTerm 2 as a terminal.

In your terminal, type:

scp [e-mail]:foobar.txt /local/dir

replacing the username, host, remote filename, and local directory as appropriate.

If you want to access EC2 (or other service that requires authenticating with a private key), use the -i option:

scp -i key_file.pem [e-mail]:/remote/dir/foobar.txt /local/dir

You can do this with the scp command. scp uses the SSH protocol to copy files across system by extending the syntax of cp.

Copy something from another system to this system:

scp username@hostname:/path/to/remote/file /path/to/local/file

Copy something from this system to some other system:

scp /path/to/local/file username@hostname:/path/to/remote/file          

Copy something from some system to some other system:

scp username1@hostname1:/path/to/file username2@hostname2:/path/to/other/file

scp is certainly the way to go, but for completeness you can also do:

$ ssh host 'cat /path/on/remote' > /path/on/local

or

$ cat /path/on/local | ssh host 'cat > /path/on/remote'

Note, this is UUOC, but < /path/on/local ssh host 'cat > /path' could cause unnecessary confusion.

And to proxy between two hosts:

$ ssh host1 'cat /path/on/host1' | ssh host2 'cat > /path/on/host2'

If the SSH server support SFTP subsystem (this is part of SSH, and unrelated to FTP), use sftp. If it don't, try scp.

CyberDuck support all of them.
