RE: Host authentication failed

[Will Liu]

Did you run cfkey on the client?  You need this for authentication.

Subject: Host authentication failed


I am trying to get a copy from a server to a client working. The
server-client dialog from the cfagent debug log shows the Authentic
connection verified. But when it comes to copy the file there is
Host authentication failed.
I have the domain name set as well as added it to the server but that
did change the error. What is wrong? Anybody any idea?


Thanks,
Eva
