Hello,
Ibm trying to copy all the contents of "/root/var/namedb from a remote
OpenBSD3.8 DNS server to my local PC. I am using WinSCP for file transfer. I
have found that I am unable to download some of the directories:
/root/var/named/etc
/root/var/named/log
/root/var/named/slave
I do not know the commands to copy a whole directory. Can anyone help?
KISS:
$cd (makes sure you're in YOUR home directory)
$mkdir stuff
$su ..
(Make sure you're still in your directory stuff)
# cd /<your home directory>/stuff
mkdir etc
cp /root/var/named/etc/* etc
mkdir log
cp /root/var/named/log/* log
mkdir slave
cp /root/var/named/slave/* slave
cd ..
chown -R <you> *
That should leave you three directories under 'stuff' you can grab via winscp.
