hi friends,

I need to pull files out of server2 using scp to server1

$ scp server2:~/.profile .

ssh: connect to host server2 port 22: Connection timed out

$

but i can pull files out of server2 using scp to server3 means:
i can use scp between:
server2-server3 & server1-server3 * vice-versa.

but not able to do scp in between server2-server1.

I need to pull files out of server2 using scp to server1.

this is the issue with server2 or server1 ?

Hi,

is your sshd on server2 running?
if not: start it!
/sbin/init.d/secsh start

if this is not the reason, try to start the scp in verbose Mode with -v

You can also start the sshd on server2 in debug Mode, using the Arg -d on sshd start.

i used these two commands.

#/sbin/init.d/secsh stop
#/sbin/init.d/secsh start
