chickenDoes any geek among you know how to get rid of that annoying "Keyboard-interactive:" prompt when trying to SCP files from some *nix boxes (via a command-line interface)? What is it, and why is it there? It's not plain-texting my password, is it? To be safe, I usually just type nothing, then hit return and type my password at the next (regular) "Password:" prompt.

ssh2: FATAL: Illegal -o parameter "preferredauthentications=hostbased,publickey,password"on execution.FYI one of the machines involved (the one on which I am executing the command) is a nasty Solaris machine using COMMERCIAL ssh (ick).
