No, scp is for sending files to a remote machine that the user has yet
to connect to:
localhost$ scp /path/to/file.txt user@remoteMachine /remote/path/
However, I want something like this:
localhost$ ls
file.txt
localhost$ ssh user@remoteMachine
remoteMachine$ ls
remoteMachine$ put file.txt
remoteMachine$ ls
file.txt
remoteMachine$
Of course, that "put" command does not exist in SSH (it does exist in
FTP). What _does_ work like that in SSH?
