title: Using SCP to move a file from windows desktop to a hadoop sandbox on vmware
body: <p>I think this is simple but I would really appreciate your help. I have a zip file on my windows desktop "RECEIPTS_LAB.zip" and I am running a hadoop sandbox on vmware. The sandbox is part of a training course I signed up for with mapr but I am a beginner and not sure how to move the zip file from windows to the directory in sandbox which is"/user/user01/3"</p>
  
  <p>The manual uses the following code</p>
  
  <p><strong><em>scp RECEIPTS_LAB.zip user01@node-ip:/user/user01/3</em></strong></p>
  
  <p>node-ip is the ip address that I got when starting the sandbox, lets assume its 192.168.88.128</p>
  
  <p>When I write the following command:
  scp RECEIPTS_LAB.zip user01@192.168.88.128:/user/user01/3</p>
  
  <p>And the error I get is: <strong><em>"RECEIPTS_LAB.zip: No such file or directory"</em></strong></p>
  
  <p>Please help me understand what should I do since I have tried a lot of times to modify the syntax but I still get the same error</p>
