How can files be transferred to Linux through xshell?
You can transfer files to Linux in Xshell using two methods:
- To transfer a local file to a remote Linux server in Xshell, use the scp command and enter the following command.
- Copy a file from a local directory to a specific directory on a server using the SCP command.
- For example, transfer the local file test.txt to the directory /tmp on the remote server.
- Copy the file “test.txt” from the “/home/user” directory to the “/tmp” directory on the server with IP address 192.168.0.1 using the SCP command.
- After entering the command, you will be prompted to enter the password of the target server.
- By using the SFTP protocol, you can easily upload local files to a remote Linux server in Xshell’s file manager by simply dragging and dropping the files. Once connected to the remote server, click on the file transfer button on the toolbar (icon is a folder with an arrow), which opens a file manager window where you can drag and drop files to upload them to the server.
Both methods can be used to transfer files to a Linux server in Xshell.
