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.

So your setup is while setting at host1 you execute scp root@host3:myfile root@host2: and get "access denied"?

further I expect you are using ssh-agent.

if so, I expect it has something to do with scp dropping agent forwarding. search 'scp agent forwarding' I once found a script to work around it, but that is painful.
