    Hello,

    I am attempting to move accounts across servers using the copy accounts function - but it gets so far and then I get the following error:

    Copying account package file...Scp has been disabled on the remote server or is missing.

    Though as far as I can see scp is working fine.... I SSH into the remote server and its there and I can use it>!?

    Can anyone see what else might be wrong?

    Thank you for any reply.

    Did you try taking a backup of the account from the remote server using the pkgacct scripts and trying to copy it to the new server using scp or ftp. There you can easily rstore it. Are you able to scp from the remote server?

    Hiya,

    I was using the WHM copy account script - but it always failed - I figured it's because I didn't permit root login with SSH - I disabled this and it works - though the script does give you the option to put in the wheel user:pass that you then su from.

    One thing though the multiple move doesn't want to work for me... doing them all by the single account function.

    I have the very same problem with multiple moves and single site moves, but I have temp enabled direct root login and it still does not work.

    Anyone?
