All,
I did all of that and it is for some reason still not working. (I'm sure that it is something small that I am not noticing...)
When I do the scp, here is the command I am issuing:
/usr/bin/scp -i /home/backupuser/.ssh/id_dsa backup@host.domain.com:/home/backup/file.tgz
Is there a scp switch that I need to use to force dsa??
Thanks :-)
Can you login manually using ssh? and can the user 'backup'? If you issue the backup command as normal user (eg 'drew') does the scp use ~drew/.ssh/known_hosts or ~backup/.ssh/known_hosts ? As far as switches to force DSA, imho the sshd on the remote machine needs to identify itself as using DSA - so I don't think it is a scp problem... HTH Maf.
