Today, I like to copy a file from a server to a different server using command line in Unix. Since I like to put the file at a location that require root permission, if I do it using scp, I have to split it into two commands, i.e.,<\/p>\n
1.) scp the file to a remote location
\n2.) copy the file to destination location via sudo and ssh<\/p>\n
However, I like to do it in one single command. After trial and error for few times, finally I come up with a solution to solve this computer server problem.<\/p>\n
Suppose I want to copy a file from local server:\/my_source_file to remoteserver.com:\/root\/file, I can simply do everything in one single command:<\/p>\n
\r\nssh remoteserver.com sudo sh -c '\"cat > \/root\/file\"' < \/my_source_file\r\n<\/pre>\nThis computer problem is easy and piece of cake.<\/p>\n
