SCP process coming in as a remote command vs a file transfer

I recently upgraded VMS 7.3-2 and TCPIP 5.4 and enabled SSH. We have an AIX
system that needs to send files over and they want to use scp. We have
public key authentication working as the scripting (from SAP on an AIX 5.2
system) does not pass password. They get connected, but the file never
comes over. I noticed that the console messages make it process the login
command file (because for ftp jobs I have it send a console message). The
logfile in the users directory is this:

PDCFTP$ ty TCPIP$SSH_RCMD.LOG
$ Set NoOn
$ VERIFY = F$VERIFY(F$TRNLNM("SYLOGIN_VERIFY"))
user job terminated at 27-OCT-2004 11:13:19.20
Accounting information:
Buffered I/O count: 74 Peak working set size: 3984
Direct I/O count: 31 Peak virtual size: 173888
Page faults: 343 Mounted volumes: 0
Charged CPU time: 0 00:00:00.04 Elapsed time: 0 00:00:00.17

So the RCMD in the log file makes it look like SSH is not detecting that the
remote system is doing a SCP.

Here is the console messages:

%%%%%%%%%%% OPCOM 27-OCT-2004 11:12:43.61 %%%%%%%%%%%
Message from user INTERnet on
INTERnet ACP SSH Accept Request from Host: 152.3.yyy.nnn Port: 51491

PDCFTP$
%%%%%%%%%%% OPCOM 27-OCT-2004 11:12:46.70 %%%%%%%%%%%
Message from user
_FTA77:, User xxx login executing...

Any ideas?
Thanks,
