Hi,

Using scp to copy the files to the specic host, and mentioning the
relative path. By default , home directory is prefixed with relative
path at the server side and copied the file. so, it could be nice if
there is a configurable option to prefix the directory name istead of
home directory, as we see in ftp anon_root parameter in vsftp.conf
file.

eg: 

scp testfile host:success -> at the server side it should be copied to
<configurable-path>/success/testfile.

Unfortunately scp is basically a non-extensible protocol and we have
closed adding new features to it. sftp(1) is becoming a more viable
replacement, especially in the forthcoming openssh-5.4 where it will
include support for recursive file transfers.
