Hello everyone, I am trying to address the following problem (noob level). I want to send a compressed directory from my server to another server by using scp. I have created my public/private keys through the security service (ssh access), I have made the public key authorized, then I have copied the public key to the destination server. However, when I run my bash script where I have the command: scp mydir.tar me@scp.destserver.com:destdit/ I come up with this error: Host key verification failed. lost connection Any suggestion? Thank you in advance.

  scp mydir.tar me@scp.destserver.com[/EMAIL]:destdit/

  
  Hello, Try using the "i" flag with SCP to define the path to your key file: scp'ing using key file as a parameter, How can I do that if possible? Thank you.
