I am trying to move a file from a virtual machine (Ubuntu 18.04) on my local system to a remote server using a very basic scp command. This issue is present only on one particular server, others work fine so it is not a generic thing.
scp <file name> <user>@<complete_hostname>:~/
But this command does not proceed beyond authentication which is successful.
SCP Log: (from local machine, Ubuntu 18.04)

I do not have any privileged access on these machines , is there a way to find out what is going wrong? What would I need to do the same?

For future readers,
but
so
scp
could seem to hang this way (wrong port). The-v
flag is your friend.
