# rcp
> Copy files between local and remote systems.
> It mimics the behavior of the `cp` command but operates across different machines.
> More information: <https://www.gnu.org/software/inetutils/manual/html_node/rcp-invocation.html>.
- Copy a file to a remote host:
`rcp {{path/to/local_file}} {{username}}@{{remote_host}}:{{/path/to/destination/}}`
- Copy a directory recursively:
`rcp -r {{path/to/local_directory}} {{username}}@{{remote_host}}:{{/path/to/destination/}}`
- Preserve the file attributes:
`rcp -p {{path/to/local_file}} {{username}}@{{remote_host}}:{{/path/to/destination/}}`
- Force copy without a confirmation:
`rcp -f {{path/to/local_file}} {{username}}@{{remote_host}}:{{/path/to/destination/}}`
