Hi,
I have setup my network with public keys, which works great, but how do
I copy files between two target systems? My desktop has my private key,
and I have several target systems with a copy of my public key. I can
ssh into any of the targets without issue, but if I try to scp files
between two targets, it fails as the targets do not have my private
key. Is there a mechanism to forward the established authentication
though a connection? Is this what ssh-agent is for? Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Kenneth
