Right, im with you. The keyfile is mine though, and i know i can ssh
from this box to that without any problem.
I've made a test script for htis and it's returning some very weird
stuff now. The actual file it outputs (stdout and stderr) is the actual
image im trying to send!
<?php
$file = '/stat/data/drupal/image.png';
exec("/usr/bin/scp -v -i /home/troot/.ssh/id_dsa $file nick@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/var/www/images/ 1>&2
/var/www/html/test/out", $ack);
print_r($ack);
?>
