The command sudo tailscale file cp ${filename} ${select}
is a command used to copy a file from one location to another in a Tailscale network.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
-
sudo
: It is a command used in Unix-like operating systems to run a command with administrative or superuser privileges. It allows the user to execute a command as another user, often the root user. -
tailscale
: It is a command-line tool that creates a secure network between devices, enabling secure communication and file sharing between them. -
file
: This command is used in Tailscale to perform file operations like copying, moving, or deleting files within the Tailscale network. -
cp
: It is short for "copy" and is the specific operation we are performing. It allows us to copy a file from one location to another. -
${filename}
: It is a placeholder indicating the name of the file you want to copy. You need to replace${filename}
with the actual file name or its path. -
${select}
: It is another placeholder indicating the destination location where the file should be copied. You need to replace${select}
with the actual destination location or path.
Therefore, by executing the command sudo tailscale file cp ${filename} ${select}
, you will copy the file specified by ${filename}
to the destination location indicated by ${select}
within the Tailscale network, using administrative privileges.
