Hi I found this issue in scp in the following blog link http://oldpapyrus.wordpress.com/2012/08/08/scp-a-funny-error/ when the wrong local file name is specified in local to remote transfer mode, scp first tries to establish the connection rather than to check first whether the file is proper or not. However I could not find a reported bug for this. I am attaching the fix as patch for this
