Hey There,

How's the script as it stands? Basically you just need to loop around the scp command (highly depends on how that looping construct is executed, based on what you're looking to do)

scp file1 host1:/some/dir/.

Is the basic syntax to scp the file from the server you're on to the remote - to do it the other way, from the server you're on

scp host1:/some/dir/file1 .

optionally, for the remote host, instead of just the hostname

host1

you might need to attach the copy to a specific user like this:

user1@host

Hope that helps :)

It helps if you have already upload your public ssh-rsa key to the remote machine. Then you don't have to enter the password each time the scp is executed.
