Thomas, Thank you very much for the tip. I can now scp from my linux machine to the SPLAT box. I followed your advice and add user "root" into the /etc/scpusers file. After that, I can do everything with scp via key authentication.
You rock! Thomas M�rtensson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: create a file called /etc/scpusers and add the users that are allowed to scp into that file. Note that the admin user have cpshell as default shell, so create another user that have another shell as default and use that as the scp user. //Thomas >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 05-02-25 13:50 >>> Fyi, there's no sftp-server in /usr/libexec/openssh at least in SPLAT R55 as far as I know. Without it, you can't scp and grab files from SPLAT. My workaround is to get the package and compile it on RH 7.2 which is supposedly what SPLAT was based on.
