  • Copy a file to a remote host:
    rcp path/to/local_file username@remotehost:/path/to/destination/
  • Copy a directory recursively:
    rcp -r path/to/local_directory username@remotehost:/path/to/destination/
  • Preserve the file attributes:
    rcp -p path/to/local_file username@remotehost:/path/to/destination/
  • Force copy without a confirmation:
    rcp -f path/to/local_file username@remotehost:/path/to/destination/
