SCP problems

Here's one that I haven't found too much help with today...

2 machines. I have successfully set up the whole id_rsa/authorized_keys
thing so that "testuser" can ssh from HOST1 to HOST2 without being
prompted for a password. Now I'm trying to get scp to work in the same
manner.

On HOST1:
#su testuser
%ssh HOST2
Last login: Wed May 21 15:01:36 2003 from ...... 
	(etc..works good =)..Then I exit back to HOST1 and try: )

%scp testuser at HOST2:/tmp/file.txt /tmp/
protocol error: mtime.sec not delimited

Umm...say what? The only thing I found in google was something about
setting the TERM variable, so I tried echo $TERM and verified that it
was set to vt100.

HOST1:
FreeBSD 4.8-PRERELEASE
OpenSSH_3.5p1 FreeBSD-20030201, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL
0x0090700f

HOST2:
FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE (updated today)
OpenSSH_3.5p1 FreeBSD-20030201, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL
0x0090701f

Suggestions?
