Attempting to send a simple txt file (soon to be csv files) from Windows Server 2019 using scp command (or sftp, or ssh) to a remote server. Remote server employee gave us a username and password to login with. WinSCP works fine. Our security team would like us to not use WinSCP, but to automate it using ssh (which currently they are trying to find a way with scp).
Initial command (port redacted):
scp -v -P ***** Test.txt username@remoteserveraddress:/
Output here:
C:Usersusername>scp -v -P ***** Test.txt username@remoteserveraddress:/
Executing: program ssh.exe host remoteserveraddress, user username, command scp -v -t /
