Linux. How do I download directory using SFTP? 24 Jun 2015

No specific Bitcoin Bounty has been announced by author. Still, anyone could send Bitcoin Tips to those who provide a good answer.

I have two Linux servers(Ubuntu 12.0) and I need to download directory with some files from server number 2 to server number 1 using SFTP(SSH connection).

At this point I put public key from the server number 1 to /home/username/.ssh/authorized_keys on server number 2 but I don't know what utility I need to use.

Thanks.

Hi.

You have the several ways;

1. Use `MC(Midnight Commander)`

You can install it using this string:

`sudo apt-get install mc`

Click 'Right->SFTP link'
Enter data from server number 2, connect, find your directory and press F5

2. Using `SCP` utility:

scp -rp user@host:/directory/from/remote_host /directory/on/your/current/host
