You can't connect to another box with ssh using the root account. It's a
security feature. The default is to use your current username, which would be
root in this instance. A way to get around this is with the -l option and then
su on the remote box.
So, #ssh -l user_name_to_login_as remotehost
I'm curious if this is a bug or a config option or am i smoking crack. I
have 2 identical (more or less) potato systems, and wanted to scp a tar
file to the other machine. the command was:
# scp /tmp/filename.tar [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp
I get
