This is true but,
Just a note:
scp *.jpg user@kitchen
Will copy all the files ending in .jpg to a directory named user@kitchen in
THIS machine, if it exists, or it will abort with an error.
If you want to remote-copy, it has to have a colon :
scp *.jpg user@kitchen:
or
scp *.jpg user@kitchen:~
ET
PS: been bitten with that one before...
