Oct 2, 2018 at 4:00 comment added R.Neville I'll just add that this method won't work if you set a passphrase for the key. Without one, it works fine.
Oct 2, 2018 at 3:50 comment added R.Neville Thank you @roaima! I setup an RSA key for [email protected] (following this tutorial: digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/…), and it works fine now (scp -r [email protected]:~/example/files_to_send [email protected]:~/example)! I appreciate you putting in the time to discover this :)

Sep 29, 2018 at 9:53 comment added R.Neville Yeah, and with my initial attempts I got a prompt for the source host ([email protected]), but it would crash before I saw the prompt for the destination host ([email protected]).
Sep 29, 2018 at 9:46 comment added Chris Davies What, you get password prompts? Were you getting those on your initial scp attempts too?
Sep 29, 2018 at 9:32 comment added R.Neville Hi @roaima. Thanks for posting. I've tried using the -3 option, but this presents me with a mashup of two password prompts side by side: [email protected]'s password: [email protected]'s password:. When I try entering a password, it responds with Permission denied, please try again, then presents me with another prompt: [email protected]'s password. But, after I enter it, I then get the message: Connection closed by 192.168.2.22 port 22. I'm stumped that this is also not working...
