The following shows how to login to a remote machine with a key (not password) so you can automate the file copy command in the crontab listed for www.zackburns.com. Some information has been obfuscated.
zburns@www:~/.ssh$ ssh-copy-id -p XXXXX -i id_rsa.pub "n8zak@w8hhf.dstargateway.org" The authenticity of host '[w8hhf.dstargateway.org]:XXXXX ([aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd]:XXXXX)' can't be established. RSA key fingerprint is ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff. Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes /usr/bin/ssh-copy-id: INFO: attempting to log in with the new key(s), to filter out any that are already installed /usr/bin/ssh-copy-id: INFO: 1 key(s) remain to be installed -- if you are prompted now it is to install the new keys n8zak@w8hhf.dstargateway.org's password:

Now try logging into the machine, with: "ssh -p 'XXXXX' 'n8zak@w8hhf.dstargateway.org'" and check to make sure that only the key(s) you wanted were added.
