I'm having a bit of a problem with a SHADOW installation that's been
running for two years. The problem is that I can't keep from being prompted
for a password when fetchem.pl runs (using the -debug switch and watching
/tmp/fetchem.log). If I try to scp or ssh from the command-line, I'm right
in, without the password prompt.
