That means that the remote server doesn't like that key!

What happens when you run the following command from the command line? 

ssh -i /export/home/secbatch/.ssh/id_rsa -o PreferredAuthentications=p
+ublickey -v sftp.bloomberg.com

Check your $PATH in order to ensure you run the same ssh binary as the script and also that you are logged as the same user.

      So, the remote and local user names are different and you need to pass the correct one, right?
[reply]

        That was it ... the names ... DUH! I was not providing the username

        Changed

         $sftp = Net::SFTP::Foreign->new( $remnode,key_path => '/export/home/secbatch/.ssh/id_rsa', more => '-v', );

        To

        %args = ( "user" => $remuser, key_path => '/export/home/secbatch/.ssh/
+id_rsa' );
$sftp = Net::SFTP::Foreign->new( $remnode,%args, more => '-v', );
