Two Methods for Remote File Download in Linux: FTP command and SCP command

FTP command:

The FTP server is installed on the server, and the FTP client can be used on another Linux server.ProgramTo read and download files.

1. Connect to the FTP server
Format: ftp [hostname | IP-address]
A) on the Linux Command Line, enter FTP 192.168.26.66.
B) The server will ask you for your username and password, and enter the username and password respectively. After the authentication is passed, you can.

2. Download an object

The get and mget commands are usually used to download files.
A) Get
Format: Get [Remote-file] [local-file]
Transfers files from the remote host to the local host.
To obtain E: \ rose \ 1.bmp on the server
Ftp> Get/rose/1.bmp 1.bmp (Press ENTER)

B) mget
Format: mget [Remote-files]
Receives a batch of files from the remote host to the local host.
To obtain all files under E: \ rose \ on the server
Ftp> Cd/rose
Ftp> mget *. * (Press ENTER)

Note: All files are downloaded to the current directory of the Linux host. For example, if you run the FTP command in/root/yint, all files are downloaded to/root/yint.

3. upload files

A) Put
Format: put local-file [Remote-file]
Transfers a local file to the remote host.
If you want to transfer 1.bmp of postgresql to the remote host E: \ rose, and rename it 333.bmp
Ftp> put 1.bmp/rose/333.bmp (Press ENTER)

B) mput
Format: mput local-Files
Transfers a batch of files from the local host to the remote host.
To upload all BMP files in the current local directory to the server E: \ rose
Ftp> Cd/rose (Press ENTER)
Ftp> mput *. BMP (Press ENTER)
Note: All uploaded files are from the current directory of the host. For example, if you run the FTP command under/root/test, only the file Linux under/root/test will be uploaded to the server E: \ rose.

4. Disconnect
Bye: the connection to the server is interrupted.
Ftp> Bye (Press ENTER)

SCP command:

SCP is a secure file copy, ssh-based login

Suppose you want to copy a local file named a.tar. TZ under the Local Computer/hometo/home/tmp on 192.168.0.2 of the remote server. In addition, the name of your account on the remote server is root. You can use this command:
SCP/home/a.tar. TZ root@192.168.0.2:/home/tmp/

Use this command to copy files from a remote machine to the current directory of the local machine:
SCP root@192.168.0.2:/home/a.tar. TZ

Copy files in the entire directory of the remote machine
SCP-r root@192.168.0.2:/home /*./
