Re: merge documents with scp

You need to use rsync

rsync -av /path/to/localfile user@remotehost:/path/to/remotefile

or alternatively

rsync -av user@remotehost:/path/to/remotefile /path/to/localfile

thanks for the quick responses.... what I meant is like to have duplicate
files on two systems and then make the files the same.

Fast answer:

ssh me@foosystem ‘cat the_Remote_file’ >> localfile

Explanation:

                On system ‘foosystem’ (as me), cat the file.  On this system, 
append that stream of bytes to ‘localfile’.

Should you want to ‘tail –f’ the file on ‘foosystem’, change ‘cat’ to ‘tail –
f’. (Or grep, or …)

Subject: merge documents with scp

is there a way to tell scp to add any appended text to an existing document?
(that's called 'merge', right?)
