I've done something similar and used exec() to call a shell script:

The other option is using the PHP ssh2 module, which support SCP
transfers:

How to run a script when a node is added for a custom
module
I am currently developing a module
for the audio module to enable RTMP streaming and FFMPEG
encoding.
I am wondering what the best approach is to run the scp
command (like flash video) when an audio node is added (to add
the file to an RTMP server)? Can I use hook_form_alter to run
this command? I am looking through the Drupal API at the
moment. I also want to run an ffmpeg command as well when the
node is added to encode the media for storage on the rtmp
server.
Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
