Can't solve a simple SSH/scp issue.. Please help.
Disclaimer: I tried searching but wasn't able to get to the answer so please don't flame.
Scenario:
I have a root script that generates a file on box1 and then needs to scp it over to box2 using user1. Both boxes are running open-ssh.
root@locat-host# scp /tmp/file1 user1@box2:/tmp/file1
Problem:
When I scp directly from user1 (user1@box1# ssh box2) -- all is good.
When I scp from root user (root@box1# ssh user1@box2) -- I am prompted for a password.
local-host key located: /home/user1/id_rsa.pub
remote-host auth located: /home/user1/authorized_keys
Is my key placement off?
- Thanks
