scp filename &nbsp;username@destination.hostn<wbr />ame.com:/p<wbr />ath/to/dir<wbr />ectory/<br />

I was able to load files but i could not upload files.

Was this the command to upload to the remote server?
scp filename  username@destination.hostname.com:/path/to/directory/

Yes, that's the syntax to upload a file to a remote ssh server with scp.<br />
<br />
The destination directory needs to already exist<br />
<br />
The -r option can also be used to download/upload entire directories recursively also<br />
<br />
The &nbsp;man scp &nbsp;<br />
command should bring up the manual page for the utility, by the way.
