    I would use rsync, scp, or sftp.

    Thanks for the quick respond but I'm looking for command line parameters which should automate this process.
    There are many directories on this server.

    P.S.

    This file is located on the server.

    Thanks

    $scp user@machine1.com:/your_file user@anothermachine.com

    you can automate password-verification process by exchanging ssh public-keys (see authorized_keys in man pages)
