similar to: [Bug 959] enhancement: supporting a remote scp path option in scp

Hi there, I've written some enhancements to scp.c and pathnames.h to enable the scp to arbitrarily set the remote scp path. (eg $ scp -e /usr/bin/scp foo user at bar:foo) I did read the "scp: command not found" FAQ entry but I'm not quite sure why we can't do this, unless it's because enhancements to scp are no longer a priority. Any other reason why it "is the

I don't know if anyone would be interested in this but I'm including a patch to allow for offsets when transferring files with SCP. It's pretty simple and assumes the user knows what they are doing (for example, if transferring with a wild card the offset would apply to all files). -A is the number of bytes offset from the beginning of the files. -Z is the number of bytes inset

I've experienced some troubles using scp with remote files with spaces, amphersands or parantheses in their filenames on Linux hosts. This happens: stain at false:~$ scp "bender.linpro.no:blapp blapp" . scp: blapp: No such file or directory scp: blapp: No such file or directory stain at false:~$ scp "bender.linpro.no:blapp&blapp" . bash: blapp: command

Hi a fellow debian developer pointed it out to me, that ssh itself does not check the username that is provided for login into a remote host, but that scp checks it. I could verify that the current openssh code from cvs still has a check for the username in scp.c but not in ssh.c. So I created the attached small patch to remove the username check from scp. I hope ?t's correct and that you

I'm curious how to go about submitting a suggestion that affects both the original BSD version and the portable release. A few days ago I sent off a BSD-relative patch to openssh at openssh.com. Is this the right thing to do? I didn't hear anything back, but it's only been 3 days, so I'm probably just being too antsy. In the meantime, maybe someone else out there would like to

[Please Cc: me, I'm not on the list] fsh (http://www.lysator.liu.se/fsh/) is a program that keeps an ssh tunnel open and multiplexes multiple batch sessions through that single connection, avoiding slower public key crypto for things like cvs. fsh includes an utility called fcp that can multiplex file copies through this single connection. It relies on scp for the actual file copying,

I'm fond of the "-a" (archive) option of cp, and I'm a heavy user of scp, so I guess it's inevitable that I would eventually add support for "-a" to scp. :-) Actually, it's a "-L" flag for preserving symlinks, and a "-a" flag that is shorthand for "-Lpr". Please let me know if I'm not doing this right.... I made a great

the configure option --program-prefix does not work although it is listed in teh configure --help output. The attached patch fixes these issues: 1) program prefix is not substituted in configure 2) program prefix is not present in Makefile 3) scp requires use of a known "scp" program -- bryan diff -cr openssh-2.9.9p2.orig/Makefile.in openssh-2.9.9p2/Makefile.in ***

Hi, I have made a patch which improves scp utility. It adds two new features: rate limit and resume support. With rate limit it's possible to limit transfer speed. Resume allows to continue file transfer where it was last interrupted. Also the progress meter was improved. Here is my patch, please send comments about it and what I can do better if there is something to fix. ---

Hello, I would like to request an update of the progress regarding fixes for the recently disclosed SCP vulnerability (CVE-2018-20685, CVE-2019-6111, CVE-2019-6109, CVE-2019-6110) It has been stated that CVE-2018-20685 has been patched in november but there are currently no information available on the progress of patches regarding the other CVEs. Will there be a patched release any time soon?

Hi, A couple of days ago I realized that 'scp' on the client-side requires 'scp' on the server-side as well. client:scp -> server:sshd -> server:scp It this really the way it should be? IMHO it seems like a bad design. I usually create a Solaris-package with prngd, sshd, ssh-keygen and name it OpenSSH-3.x.x-serveronly but now I have to also include 'scp'. Is it

When copying a file with an escaped character, scp removes the escaping character before sending to the host. Is there a way to circunvent this? Some examples follow (linux machines) A: touch file\(new\) B: scp user at A:file\(new\) . user at A password: bash: -c: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `(' bash: -c: line 1: `scp -f (' A: touch file\ 1 B: scp user at A:file\ 1 .

I recently built openssh 2.1.1p1, under solaris. I noticed that I had problems running scp. It seems that it could not find the executable on the remote end. This was odd, becuase it existed in /usr/local/bin, publically executable, and /usr/local/bin/was in the users' normal PATH (exported, even). So finally, I twiddled the source to make it call /usr/local/bin/scp, instead of just

Hello, in order to use "scp", the scp binary has to be in the compile-time default path on the remote host. For some users (like root), we try to avoid this since scp may be on a network file system (AFS/NFS), and we don't want to hang root's session on network outages. Would a patch to scp be acceptable in the main tree that allows to set the path to remote scp explicity,

Hello All, As the release notes of SSH-4.7 version says that a new MAC algorithm (UMAC-64 - RFC4418) was introduced with OpenSSH-4.7 which gives much better performance, I was tempted to check out the enhanced speed provided with new version. So I downloaded OpenSSH-5.1p1 and build it on Solaris 10 with Sun Compiler CC. My test setup:- 1. Two Sunfire 440 with 2 CPU (1281 MHz) and 4GB RAM. 2.

But that would effectively mean one has to toss scp. Reality is simply that most peers cannot be really trusted? just imagine all the administration work which is done from some user/admin's computer to countless servers (running

I almost never use bare 'scp' or 'sftp' anymore; I start with either 'rsync' or, if 'rsync' is not present and not installable on one end or the other, the "tar-over-bare-ssh" approach: ``` tar cf - localpath | ssh remote.host 'cd remotepath && tar xvf -' ``` I'd be in favor of one of the following: 1. 'scp' goes away, and

I'm a bit confused how scp works... could someone please explain the local/remote external calls that happen when scp is started... in particular how it relates to ssh on the remote site? To be more specific... I use Kerberos for authentication and I've been working on an ssh wrapper script that checks my Kerberos credentials before running the ssh command. If the credentials are
