So if you are trying to scp a file from a remote server or copy a file from your local system to a remote location and you see that you get the below ssh error,
root@linux-box:/# scp user@192.168.0.10:/tmp/logs.txt /usr/log-dir/
ssh: connect to host 192.168.0.10 port 22: Connection refused
Troubleshooting steps:
- Check if the server IP/address provided is the valid one.
- Check if the remote server is available on some other port instead of 22
- Check if port 22 is open, is there any firewall configuration or access issue, check with yout Admin or ISP provider.
