A dead simple way to send files between two Linux machines not on the same network is to use a utility called [Magic Wormhole](https://github.com/warner/magic-wormhole). It is typically included in the standard repositories and is so simple the this blog post is going to end soon.

|
|
|
**Send a file:**
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
wormhole send filename
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will generate a code for you to share like `6-speculate-allow`
|
|
|
|
**Receive a file:**
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
wormhole receive 6-speculate-allow
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Done.
