On LNXPROCSRVR, do:
[root@LNXPROCSVR Backup051011]# ssh-keygen -b 1024 -t dsa -P''
[root@LNXPROCSVR Backup051011]# scp ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub
root@69.?.?.?:.ssh/authorized_keys
Now you have root key trust, without a passphrase, which you can use to
automate that SCP without entering a password.
With google and a bit of searching, there are a number of good guides as
to how this works.
