openssh bugs - Feb 2005 - [Bug 982] scp doesn't work with password authentication when copying from remote to remote

http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=982

           Summary: scp doesn't work with password authentication when
                    copying from remote to remote
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 3.9p1
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: scp
        AssignedTo: openssh-bugs at mindrot.org
        ReportedBy: t8m at centrum.cz


This happens when copying from my1.box to my2.box:

scp root at my1.box:/etc/motd root at my2.box:/tmp/foo
Asks password for one side then displays
Permission denied, please try again.
Permission denied, please try again.
Permission denied (publickey,password,keyboard-interactive).

The reason is that the ssh invoked on the first machine will have input
redirected from /dev/null and thus it cannot authenticate.

Proposed patch

This patch calls ssh with option to force tty allocation so it's possible to
enter the password.

Do you think it's correct?
