In this hands-on lab, we will connect to a primary development system using SSH, and, once connected, will review the proper syntax for the `scp` command using either `man` or `info`. With the proper syntax in mind, we will use `scp` to copy a file from the primary development server to a new secondary development system. The last step of the lab will be to copy an audit file from the remote development system to a directory on the primary system.
