I have confused how to do that. someone tell me to use scp but it still unclear for me. I just can control the server using ssh.

I did like:

qa-desktop2@qa-desktop2:~$ scp jeinqa@136.198.117.4:/www/oqc/inspection_report.php qa-desktop2@10.230.35.212:/home/qa-desktop2/desktop

then type the password:

jeinqa@136.198.117.4's password:

then show:

Could not create directory '/home/jeinqa/.ssh'.
Host key verification failed.
lost connection

why? what is the correct steps to to that?

qa-desktop2@qa-desktop2:~$ scp jeinqa@136.198.117.4:/www/oqc/inspection_report.php  /home/qa-desktop2/desktop

should be enough, assuming that 10.230.35.212 is your local machine that you run this on, so you omit the user@host: part for the local part of the copy action.

Also, please read some info about rsync it is very powerful and has proven to be more powerful and useful then scp in most cases.

Also, you could try sftp, works like regular ftp but does it over the secure ssh connection.

  • rsync is a bit overkill for this, you do not need deltas etc. Also scp & sftp work on most SSH-enabled systems while rsync requires a special daemon – dtech Sep 14 '11 at 10:12
