I have two machines, and I am trying to copy files from one to the other via SCP.
Since this machine is accessible from two of our networks, we're trying to restrict the use of SCP to a select few individuals to prevent unauthorized data transmission from network to network.
What we did was we chmodded 700 /usr/bin/scp. The owner has remained root and the group has remianed root.
From a different machine, I'm trying to scp to that machine, but I'm receiving an "access denied".
My ssh key is in the authorized users file in the root profile.
Anyone have a logical explanation?
