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.

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. I verified my login, directory and
filenames were correct by sending the file manually.
