Hi Shawn,
It should work. Make sure that scp doesn't loose the environment when
running from a cron. The best way is to put it in a script and set the
environment in the script. I would also suggest not to run the cron as
root. I'll soon be moving hundreds of files a day with scp which is
embedded in a Python script which is in turn run from a cron.
