Full Discussion: Passwordless SSH works, scp does not
Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers Passwordless SSH works, scp does not Post 302880380 by bakunin on Thursday 19th of December 2013 07:32:39 AM

Where the "authorized_keys"-file resides can be configured. This is just a guess, but might it be that "scp" just looked for it at a different location (because of, maybe, different environments)?

I hope this helps.
