automatic SCP transfers issues
Hi,

I'm trying to set up scp but it isn't as nice as WinSCP. My requirement is to transfer a file from one machine to another with scp. This would run in a .ksh so it would need to avoid prompts (password/are you sure). First I tried this with v2: SSH with Keys HOWTO: SSH with Keys in a console window
Then I tried this: ssh-keygen: password-less SSH login

I moved the .pubs to the server I wanted to connect to and cat'd them to the authorized_keys & authorized_keys2 files but it doesn't work. I get the following error:
Code:
debug1: Connection established.
debug1: identity file /home/oracle/.ssh/identity type -1
debug1: Remote protocol version 2.0, remote software version OpenSSH_3.9p1
debug1: match: OpenSSH_3.9p1 pat OpenSSH*
Protocol major versions differ: 1 vs. 2

Anyone able to help or has a good simple to follow guide? The scp should overwrite any file with the same name. Thanks for help.
