That's not how it works. You may have in both places, but the place that's actually used matters only.

It doesn't appear to work fully... I have it stored in the ini file but I believe I found the registry key where the other piece is stored. It won't be a big deal to merge a .reg file b4 running the batch so I think that's a good enough solution. I'll mess around with it more to find the most ideal solution since I'm always doing that though.

Thanks

If you accept the key (either in GUI or script) while using an INI file, the key gets stored into the INI file. So then, whereever you run your script with the INI file, the key is known already.

I understand that the host key is important to the security of ssh. However it is causing me many problems. I have logged in with the GUI and accepted the key. When I try to run my script, I get an error in the log saying the host key wasn't verified.

I NEED a way to run this without any verification.

I work in at a school with about 5-600 machines. I have a file server specifically set up to backup a users data. On a USB drive I have a batch file that executes this command. -> winscp403.exe /console /ini=C:\WINDOWS\Temp\winscp382.ini /script=winscpscript.txt

The idea is to be able to backup the persons data with minimal effort. (Just plug in a USB drive and double click the batch file.

Going around and tweaking every system in all three buildings would be a major pain in the ass so I either need a way around this issue or I'm going to need an alternative to WinSCP...

Any ideas on how to force it to confirm with(Y) every time it asks me someting?
