Hi @skriss03,

I’ll recommend using either rsync or scp via your terminal to copy the file over. It’s simple and it takes less than 10 seconds.

The scp command syntax take the following form:

scp [OPTION] [user@]SRC_HOST:]file1 [user@]DEST_HOST:]file2
  • OPTION - scp options such as cipher, ssh configuration, ssh port, limit, recursive copy …etc.
  • [user@]SRC_HOST:]file1 - Source file.
  • [user@]DEST_HOST:]file2 - Destination file Local files should be specified using an absolute or relative path, while remote file names should include a user and host specification.

Same goes for the Rsync command, same syntax just different options. For beginners, I’ll recommend starting off with SCP.

Regards,
KFSys
