Hello,

I am on Ubuntu and I need to know the name of my machine (in order to perform ssh and then scp).

How can I do this?

Thanks in advance.

Actually, I don't think my machine has the same name on the network...
Because when I do the scp with the name returned by hostname, it doesn't recognize it!

Hum, well...
But it's messing up: 
florian@RSS00091:/var/www$ scp shakur florian@florian-desktop:shakur ssh: connect to host florian-desktop port 22: No route to host lost connection

Do you have a name server on your network? Or are your machines listed in "/etc/hosts" for Linux?

I don't know >_<

No idea!

I just know that I'm connected to my company's network, but that's it...

Well, I see I can't help you help me, so I will try to tinker on my own as best as I can...

Well, I finally achieved my goal (which was to do an scp).
I typed 
sudo scp -r florian@intratest:shakur .
and it finally worked.
Thank you for your help jipicy!
And have a good afternoon.
