To configure an SSH server to provide SCP access, follow these steps:
1. Install an SSH server on your system. You can use OpenSSH, which is available on most Linux distributions, or you can choose another SSH server that suits your requirements.
1. Edit the SSH server configuration file (/etc/ssh/sshd\_config), and ensure that the following lines are set or uncommented:
\`\`\` Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server \`\`\` \`\`\` AllowUsers username \`\`\` Replace username with the name of the user who will be allowed to access the server via SCP.1. Restart the SSH server for the changes to take effect.
1. Test the SCP access by connecting to the SSH server from a client using an SCP client, such as WinSCP or Cyberduck. Authenticate with the user credentials that you have set up for the allowed user, and then transfer files using the SCP client.
1. To restrict the SCP access to certain directories, set up a chroot jail or use the rssh utility.
