scp works when logging with my user id but fails when using another one

Johnny_hunterJan 13 2012 — edited Jan 13 2012
Hello all:

I wrote a script that uses scp to transfer specific local files to a server. The script takes the user id and password and pass them as scp's parameters for authentication.

Everything works fine when I uses my own user id to test the script but it fails when I used another id (with ligitimate password) to do the same thing.

I suspect it's a privilege issue. Both ids belong to the same group. Where should I look to fingure this out?

Thanks,
John
