For the point on transferring files if you are logged into the remote folder already:

1. What do you mean by ssh being setup on the machine?
2. Do we actually type @local:/... or once SSH is "setup" we have an actual address for the local machine (e.g. Mac Laptop)?

Thanks!

Update:

When I run it with username@local:/file_directory...

I get the following error:

ssh: local: node name or service name not known

Update: (Solution)

I setup local ssh on my mac:

‘System Preferences’ --> ‘Internet & Networking’ --> ‘Sharing’ --> ENABLE ‘Remote Login’

This then provided the username@ip address.

If you happen to be on OSX...

When I tried running it with username@local:/file_directory...

I got the following error:

Solution

On my Mac I had to do the following to setup local ssh:

‘System Preferences’ --> ‘Internet & Networking’ --> ‘Sharing’ --> ENABLE ‘Remote Login’

This then provided the username@ip address.
