Sometime back when I required to move some files to and from my virtual machine managed by Vagrant, I found that normal SSH/SCP did not work. After searching the internet for sometime I found few solutions, non of which worked like a charm. After trying few things here and there I found a foolproof way to scp files in and out of vagrant machine.
For scp , you will need to run the usual scp command but you will need to pass in an extra argument -P which is the SSH the port to connect to on the remote host.
scp -P 2222 -r [email protected]:/home/vagrant/site . <path-in-host-machine>By default the virtual machine spun up by vagrant will use 2222 as SSH port but to find the port value you can run following command
vagrant ssh-configHope this helps :-)
