I'm trying to SCP some files from my windows downloads directory to my VirtualBox RedHat Linux box. I'm very rusty in unix and new to VirtualBox. Anyway, I've defined the storage like this (HortonWorksSandbox):
and the ISO file like this:
The network area is defined like this, but I doubt it's using it because I'm going from the C drive of my windows box to an area in the virtual box that's built on the c drive.
I've read that a NAT defined network will be refused when SCP'ing to it, but I'm not sure it's using that in this instance. I just don't know that much about VirtualBox and unix.
I've tried PSCP and WINSCP and both failed. Here's some screen prints of what WinSCP does:
I know that 127.0.0.1 is up and running since I can access the sandbox at 127.0.0.1:8888 just fine. I started the sshd service with the command /sbin/service sshd start and I still get connection refused. You can see there's plenty of space in the virtualbox for a small csv file but I doubt it's even getting that far.
I tried SFTP, FTP and SCP using WinSCP and none of them worked. Could someone please help me with this? I'm getting nowhere. Thanks a lot.
