Hi, Keiron I definitely expected the second approach to work. If I can SSH into A (cvs.apache.org, or icarus), and I can SSH into B (xml.apache.org, among others, or daedalus), and I can scp to both, then I ought to be able to scp between A and B from my machine. But it aborted every time I tried it.
My problem with the first approach is that SSH uses passwords also, but as a convenience I have the password set to nothing so I don't have to enter it every time. What happened was icarus asked me for a password and I had none to give. So that failed. Further investigation is required. :-) Arved -----Original Message----- From: Keiron Liddle [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: February 22, 2002 4:23 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: SSH'ing Hi Arved, I ssh'ed into A (thats cvs.apache.org right?) and did an scp to B. As I use password access only then I had to enter a password. It sounds like you are using key access, in which case wouldn't you need you key for B setup in A? From you machine you should still be able to do scp a:/home/... b:/www/... and I think it will use the keys from you machine which are apparently working.
