(passwords altered from reality, but format left intact)

Log attached (with some added data) though it does not seem useful. It gave no indication why the script failed - I found out in /console
(this server, the reasons for my connecting to it, and the data to be transferred are all Safety-of-Flight. I'm an Air Traffic Systems Field Engineer, the system is FAA).

Expected host key was not configured, use -hostkey switch.
Host key fingerprint is ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 256 KmlymX4521gtpAaOhSrz4UY9CAEO+JNiAFTCQ/XqbUN=.

Help?Too many parameters for command 'open'.
