When I attempt to scp a file from one server to another

Example: scp testfile egamory@olympus:/opt/home/egamory

I receive the following error message:


.ssh/config: line 1: Bad configuration option: NoHostauthenticationForLocalhost
.ssh/config: terminating, 1 bad configuration options

Has anyone seen this before and have any idea how to fix it?

On the other hand, I can successfuly scp from the server "Olympus" to my local workstation.

Thanks in advance for you replies.
