Flex Mavenizer - Deploying to server using SCP

I am almost there in mavenizing the SDK and deploying it to our local repo,
but I can't get it to work using SCP, even though it looks like it should.
I use the following command line:

(this is on windows)

PS > java -cp ./flex-sdk-converter.jar SDKInVMDeployer ./output
"scp://dev-linux.novalinx.net/var/www/maven" "<user-redacted>"
"<password-redacted>"

I get the following error/output:

I tried it with the "scp" prefix too and it doesn't work.
Documentation on this is rather sparse...I've searched and found little
besides the Mavenizer page, which doesn't go into the details on the
deployment transport.

Any help will be appreciated! Thanks.
