For Your Error, there are two possibilities

1. port no 22 is not open state, also not able to access that folder
2. Check your folder directory in domain

Uploading Files to remote server using multer-sftp is easy and flexible way. also we can upload the files to remote server with scp, ssh techniques in node js.

Working Code:

exports.newFileUpload =  function(req , res , next){     
    var storage = sftpStorage({
      sftp: {
        host: 'hostname',
        port: 22,
        username: 'username',
        password: 'password'

      },
      destination: function (req, file, cb) {
        cb(null, 'images/')
      },
      filename: function (req, file, cb) {
        cb(null, file.fieldname + '-' + Date.now())
      }
    })

    var upload = multer({ storage: storage }).array('file');

    upload(req,res,function(err){
        logger.debug(JSON.stringify(req.body));
              logger.debug(JSON.stringify(req.files));
          if(err){
               logger.debug("Error Occured", JSON.stringify(err));
               res.json({error_code:1,err_desc:err});
          } else{
               logger.debug("Files uploaded successfully");
              res.json({error_code:0,err_desc:null});
          }
      });
}

Note: When using 'multer-sftp' port no 22 is open in remote server.

Hope it helps !
