In this tutorial, you will learn several different methods to securely transfer files from your Matrix Linux account<br>to other computers using Linux commands including '''scp''', '''sftp''' and '''mail'''.
===Issuing Commands on Remote Unix/Linux Servers===
You can use the '''ssh''' command to issue Unix/Linux commands on a '''remote''' server<br><u>without</u> logging in to a remote session.
Example:
ssh username@matrix.senecacollege.ca ls
You will be prompted for your Matrix account password, then the contents of your home directory<Br>in your remote Matrix account will be displayed, although you will remain on your local computer.
