How to download a file from server using SSH?

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 your_username@remotehost.edu: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 your_username@remotehost.edu:/remote/dir/foobar.txt /local/dir

From: http://www.hypexr.org/linux_scp_help.php

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

$ 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'
