Summary: scp permissions
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 3.6.1p2
Platform: All
OS/Version: other
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: scp
AssignedTo: openssh-bugs at mindrot.org
ReportedBy: johnf.ct at netzero.net
I hope this isn't FAQ but I can't find an answer for this: If a file
named /a/some_file is in Unix machine 'A' and it's owned by user
'someuser', if I run 'scp -p root at A:/a/some_file
another_file', I
expected the permissions, timestamp, owner and group of the file to
be the same as the target_file. The timestamp and permissions are
correct but the owner becomes root instead of 'someuser'. I'm not
sure
if this is a bug but I know some older versions of ssh keep the
owner and the group of the file.
Thanks!
