scp -rp Week09 one@10.10.5.80:"/some/remote/path/with a space/"
Gives me an error:
scp: ambiguous target
The issue is caused by the space in the remote path which needs to be escaped like this:
scp -rp Week09 one@10.10.5.80:"/some/remote/path/with a space/"
Basically you add a backslash in front of each space.........
The first thing to diagnose is what is actually in the database (use PHPMyAdmin or CLI).
You will of course either find that the backslash is either in the database or not.
If the backslash is in the database you probably have magic quotes gpc/runtime on and/or are calling the "addslashes()" function which does this.
If you are escaping your data with mysql_real_escape_string() then think again, you probably have magic quotes gpc enabled either in php.ini or........
This will give you the basic info needed to browse and connect to Samba shares from the command line. From the GUI of Gnome or KDE etc, it is pretty standard and straight forward. However, I've found very little guides on how to do it from the command line and if you're like me, a nerd who prefers command line for its simplicity and for remote use, this is the way to go.
First get a list of all the Samba/SMB shares on the target.
smbclient -L hostname........
