Hi everyone, I know scp is kind of the red-headed stepchild of the suite, but I'd like to propose an extension to the syntax for remote-remote passthrough using the "-3" option. Currently the syntax is essentially scp -3 [ -P port ] [user@]host1:file [user@]host2:file This is great, as long as both remotes are on the same port. It causes difficulties if host1 and host2 are not on the same port. I'd like to propose the syntax extenision: [user@]host[,port]:file This allows the two remotes to be on separate ports. --- Scott Neugroschl | XYPRO Technology Corporation 4100 Guardian Street | Suite 100 |Simi Valley, CA 93063 | Phone 805 583-2874|Fax 805 583-0124 |

Ah. Good point. Hadn?t thought of that one! Thanks. I withdraw the
suggestion.

You could also put "Port 1234" into ~/.ssh/config or ssh_config for
one or both of the hosts.
