Source is Windows and destination is Ubuntu (installed on VMware player).
I ran below script in Windows:
$targetComputerName = "192.168.22.130"
$Username = 'zahid'
$Password = 'Z@hid1212'
$Pass = ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText $Password -Force
$SecureString= $pass
$MySecureCreds = New-Object -TypeName System.Management.Automation.PSCredential -ArgumentList $Username,$SecureString
$Session = New-PSSession $targetComputerName -Credential $MySecureCreds
$DestinationPath = "/home/zahid/Downloads"
$Source = 'D:\zahid.txt'
Copy-Item -Path $Source -ToSession $Session -Destination $DestinationPath
$Session | Remove-PSSession
and got error:
New-PSSession : [192.168.22.130] Connecting to remote server 192.168.22.130 failed with the following error message : The client cannot connect to the destination
specified in the request. Verify that the service on the destination is running and is accepting requests. Consult the logs and documentation for the WS-Management
service running on the destination, most commonly IIS or WinRM. If the destination is the WinRM service, run the following command on the destination to analyze and
configure the WinRM service: "winrm quickconfig". For more information, see the about_Remote_Troubleshooting Help topic.

Do I need to setup winrm service on destination (here is Ubuntu) also? How can I achieve that?
