Re: [Nolug] scp within a cron job

Need to add the public portion to the .ssh/authorized_keys on the
remote side. first ssh to the remote. From there ssh back to the
local side. This gets the host keys stored on both sides. Then copy
(or append) the contents of identity.pub on the local side to
.ssh/authorized_keys on the remote side. you may need to use
.ssh/authorized_keys2 on the remote side depending on your version of
ssh. Also file permissions are critical. authorized_keys* must be
user read-write only.
