connect both hosts manually to each other using ssh so both are 'known_hosts' to each other.Then write a small script to sftp files.

My guess is your versions of SSH are different on those systems. Even if the known_hosts file is correct on both systems, you'll still get that error if your keys do not sync.

What version of Unix and Linux are you using?
