scp command
I want to know
how can i use scp command in the reverse fashion
meaning i have two machines server1 and server2
I have files in server1 that i need to copy to server2
But i do not have write permissions on server2 although
i have read permissions on server1
is there a way i can go to server2 and read those files from server1
and have them copied to server2
so instead of doing scp file1 bn_unx@server2:/dir from server1
can i run scp command from server2 so that it reads files from server1 and copies them to server2

[-F] [-C] [-X]
DESCRIPTION
gentest is a utility for detecting differences in behaviour between SMB servers. It will run a random set of generic operations against

-s seed
Seed the random number generator with the specified value.
-o numops
Set the number of operations to perform.
-a
Print the operations that are performed.
-A
Backtrack to find minimal number of operations required to make the response to a certain call differ.
-i FILE
Specify a file containing the names of fields that have to be ignored (such as time fields). See below for a description of the file
format.
-O
Enable oplocks.
-S FILE
Set preset seeds file. The default is gentest_seeds.dat.
-L
Use preset seeds
-F
Fast reconnect (just close files)
-C
