SHOSTS file format for SCP command
Hi

I am facing some problem with my authentication for using scp command. The command prompts me for password, even though i have populated the files on the source and the destination server. The following link provided some light but i got stuck again

http://www-acs.ucsd.edu/info/scp.php

i am unable to comprehend what steps need to be taken after creating a shosts file. Please clarify in simple language.

Thanks

What issues have you encountered using this method ? There aren't more simple words, this tutorial is written simple enough, did you follow the steps with "chmod" , etc.... What are the errors that you've received, what is the OS ?
