[accidentally sent my response to John only...I ask him to forgive the dupe message]

it's not clear to me what kind of permission is denied.

Nor me! When I run the command using password-based authentication, it runs without a problem. It's only when I try the public key authentication. This is the only output generated, but I'm assuming it means that permission to log in wa denied, as opposed to permission to run the command.


who does the script run as? does that user have permission to read the
file?

The script runs as the user who has the public key authentication set up. That is, if in the same session, I type "ssh host" I'm allowed to login without a password being request to the remote host. If I try running the script, I get the above error message after about 10-ish seconds.



and what about your sshd- can you read the log files to see why it's
refusing the connection.

Good idea! I hadn't thought of that...I'll look at those.
