I am using a proper hostname, and have even tried several different hosts. I just left it out of the example I sent to the list. I verified all the login, hostname, filename, password, etc by scp the file manually. I have even loaded the modules on another machine and I still get the same error.

I am trying to tie the SCP Expect module into a backup script I put together, but it keeps failing. I stripped out all but the SCP example code and it still generates an error from the module.
