from the context, it seems to me that you're taking a different meaning of the word "remote" than what is meant in the text. from the point of view of scp, any host that is not the machine it's running on is "remote". it seems to me that you're interpreting "remote" to mean not on the same network as the machine on which you're running scp.
Wes, I considered that the non-source host was remote even on the LAN, but didn't get the destination address correct.
scp ./<filename> salmo: should get you started.
Thank you, Rich
