Host does not exist - cannot find the reason for this error.
Hi,
I am very familiar with sftp on my UNIX boxes. I have a fully working environment, so an SSH daemon running. I can connect to my remote server from all my UNIX boxes.
I went through all the documents, FAQ's, searched google and I still have this problem.
I have a Windows PC, I can connect manually using the syntax (my server name is "myserver"):
No problem at all, I can connect and send files.
I tried to run a batch:
I am not running this from the scheduler, just the same command prompt (Windows XP) and the same windows session.
I tried the fully qualified server name and IP address and I cannot connect, here is my attempt:
I also created the public/private key and transferred it to my remote server. Still the same.
This is my batch:
What am I doing wrong?
Regards,
Richard
PS. This WinSCP is really nice, and very good documentation, I must admit, great job done :)

This is my batch:
