We have recently upgraded to Secure Shell servers both NT and Unix. We have some NT servers that need to do automated (winat) file transfers to the new Secure Shell server at times when most humans should be sleeping. GUI client connects and manual command line connections work great. Command Line: sftp2 -b ftp.scr userid@ipaddress < pw.txt 2> ftp.out ftp.scr: put test.txt quit pw.txt validpassword The problem we can't seem to overcome is that a scheduled SSH transfer always returns the following error: You are connecting to ip address for the first time. Do you want to save the new host key to the local database and continue connecting (yes/no)? Warning: Failed to authenticate. This happens with both the Vandyke and the SSH versions of the NT secure shell server. Does anyone have suggestions? Thank you in advance.
