The best would be to run "guix publish" on your server, as it will allow others 
to use your server as a substitute server, instead of having to manually 
download archives of the package and dependencies.

guix copy copies an item from one store to the other, so it doesn't make sense 
to send from localhost to localhost :). Maybe you wanted to use guix archive 
instead, to create an archive that can later be imported?
