Hello,

Could you give us some more information about what you're trying to accomplish? The code you posted is PHP code to connect to another server and copy / receive files using scp (over SSH connection). The host shell.example.com is just that, an example.

Kind regards,

Eric

oh. i want to copy file to other server using web browser.
so i found this code and i dont know how to use it.

Hello,

Be careful to use code you don't understand. I imagine you've found that code here. You're aware you need a webserver like Apache for example, with PHP enabled and installed and besides that you'll need the functions you're calling in your code? If you have everything, including access to the remote server, you can try it out. Substitute the values in the script for the ones you use to connect and try it out. Watch log files for any errors.

Kind regards,

Eric

now i only got the form and some php code to connect to other sh file.
haha.. sorry.. i dont quite understand on what you trying to said.

Hello,

If you don't understand what I said about needing a webserver, PHP, the functions, ... are you confident enough to get this set up? I think you'd better read some books to acquire the basic knowledge you need for this. Or what part of my post didn't you understand? The more detail you provide the better someone can help you. Tell me what part you don't understand and I'll try to explain.

Kind regards,

Eric

you said function to call code. function like what you mean? function to called .sh file or what? and about access to remote server?

EricTRA · 04-25-2011, 02:55 AM

Hi,

OK, in your original post you included:

Code:

<?php
$connection = ssh2_connect('shell.example.com', 22);
ssh2_auth_password($connection, 'username', 'password');

ssh2_scp_send($connection, '/local/filename', '/remote/filename', 0644);
?>

The words in bold are functions that are defined somewhere else in another PHP script or are complete PHP scripts you're calling. So if you only have the code you originally posted without those parts your script will do nothing (only give an error).

With access to remote server I mean that if you want to copy a file from one computer to another you need access to that remote machine in the form of a user/password combination (which you must provide in the script you posted where it says username and password). Without those you will not be allowed to copy files to the other machine. I hope that makes it a bit clearer.

Kind regards,

Eric

oh now i understand.. that why i already created a form for the user to enter ip and password and also some php code for submit the input.

athrin · 04-25-2011, 03:31 AM

err.. is this correct?? i set my ip addrs variable to ip1 and password to ip2.

Code:

<?php
if(isset($_POST["detailbtn"]))
{
$ip1=$_POST["ip1"];
$ip2=$_POST["ip2"];
system("/var/www/cgi-bin/script.sh $ip2");
}
?>
<?php
$connection = ssh2_connect('$ip1', 22);
ssh2_auth_password($connection, 'root', '$ip2');

ssh2_scp_send($connection, '/home/testing.sh', '/var/www/cgi-bin/testing.sh', 0644);
?>

Hello,

I think you're misunderstanding the whole concept. Is the password you use to login on the remote server as root the value you store in $ip2?

Kind regards,

Eric

athrin · 04-25-2011, 04:02 AM

misunderstanding whole concept? you mean my code is wrong? = =
yes.. i store pword with $ip2

EricTRA · 04-25-2011, 04:09 AM

Hi,

OK, if you're storing your password in $ip2 then I just misunderstood. Assigning those strange names for a variable that will hold a password is confusing to all except to you. Have you tested your script and if so what are the results?

Kind regards,

Eric

haha.. sorry.
i tried run it with web browser.. nothing copied.. i already check inside home

EricTRA · 04-25-2011, 04:21 AM

Hi,

You do have the function scripts right? And I get the impression you're using this script to copy locally right? Is your SSH server running and set up correctly?

Kind regards,

Eric
