<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am trying to setup scup to transfer files between
two Fedora core 3 systems. I suspect that I am nearly there but I get the
following error</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>debug1: SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_ACCEPT received</DIV>

<P><FONT face=Arial>I have a user "bu" on both systems whilst logged in as "bu"
I used sshkeygen -t dsa to generate the keys (in /home/bu/.ssh) and then copied
the public key to the partner system. There I used cat to include the public key
in the authorized_keys file, both in /home/bu/.ssh and /root/.ssh.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial>My scp command is:</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial>scp -B -v <A
href="mailto:bu@nn.nn.nn.nn:/home/bu/dud.txt">bu@nn.nn.nn.nn:/home/bu/dud.txt</A> /home/bu/dud_copy.txt
where nn.nn.nn.nn is my IP address</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial>If I remove the -B I get prompted for the password and is I
enter a value the file is transferred. I suspect that I have got something wrong
with the keys but after much playing around I cannot find the
problem.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial>Any suggestions,</FONT></P>
