[Bug 986] scp: support for "proxy mode"
http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=986 Summary: scp: support for "proxy mode" Product: Portable OpenSSH Version: 3.9p1 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: scp AssignedTo: openssh-bugs at mindrot.org ReportedBy: sascha-openssh-bugs at silbe.org I frequently need to copy files between hosts that cannot connect to each other (different private network, firewall, etc.). There's a third host (my working machine usually) that can connect to both of them (let's call it proxy host), so I use scp on that host to do the copying. Currently, I have to copy the files from the source host to the proxy host and then from the proxy host to the target host using two different scp invocations because scp tries to be smart and connect directly from the source host to the target host. It would be great if scp had a "proxy mode" where it connects both to the source host and the target host, just passing through the files. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.
