      I wonder if this is related the minimal iso vs full DVD iso with minimal install. I haven't ever needed to install anything for ssh/scp to work. But I use the Minimal selection from the full DVD image.

        I don't need anything additional for scp to work and I use the minimal iso.

          He is missing a package from minimal for some reason.

            That's odd. I just scp'd into my minimal install to check. Did @Kelly do a yum update?

              We know that minimal has the openssh-clients package and his does not. It must have failed or gotten removed somehow.

                Oh, sorry I misunderstood.

                  https://www.centos.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=5153 This person had the same issue

                  Is there an openssh-clients package to install? I don't have a 6.7 server running to test on.

                  That was it. I had the below installed:

                  openssh-5.3p1-112.el6_7.x86_64
openssh-server-5.3p1-112.el6_7.x86_64

                  I ran yum install openssh-clients and now I have scp available. I'm going to test to see if this means I can now scp the file across.

                    Ok, I can now copy. Thanks for all the help. I have learned a lot in just this one issue.

                      Honestly, a lot of us probably did. I at least assumed scp would be working out of the box even on a minimal install. Good things to take note of for latter.

                        It absolutely does. We all use it, all of the time. Somehow a package was missing in this case.

                          Cool, just realized that this was solved. So marking it as such. Thanks.
