Ahh, forgot that it should be <snapshotRepository> and not <repository> below
So it should be
<distributionManagement>
<snapshotRepository>
<id>nexus</id>
<url>scp://serveraddress/usr/local/sonatype-work/nexus/storage/snapshots</url>
</snapshotRepository>
</distributionManagement>
Its working now, well not entirely since the account I am usng doesn't write
permission on the directory I am trying to write this snapshot to but that's a
different issue and will be solved by tmrw. I will report back when I do
successfully write the snapshot to the snapshot repo
Thanks for your help Ron

Did that, also added a distributionManagement section in the pom like the
following
<distributionManagement>
<repository>
<id>nexus</id>
<url>scp://serveraddress/usr/local/sonatype-work/nexus/storage/snapshots</url>
</repository>
</distributionManagement>
And I still get the exact same error
