From upstream release notes https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-9.0 This release switches scp(1) from using the legacy scp/rcp protocol to using the SFTP protocol by default. Legacy scp/rcp performs wildcard expansion of remote filenames (e.g. "scp host:* .") through the remote shell. This has the side effect of requiring double quoting of shell meta-characters in file names included on scp(1) command-lines, otherwise they could be interpreted as shell commands on the remote side. This creates one area of potential incompatibility: scp(1) when using the SFTP protocol no longer requires this finicky and brittle quoting, and attempts to use it may cause transfers to fail. We consider the removal of the need for double-quoting shell characters in file names to be a benefit and do not intend to introduce bug-compatibility for legacy scp/rcp in scp(1) when using the SFTP protocol. Another area of potential incompatibility relates to the use of remote paths relative to other user's home directories, for example - "scp host:~user/file /tmp". The SFTP protocol has no native way to expand a ~user path. However, sftp-server(8) in OpenSSH 8.7 and later support a protocol extension "expand-path@openssh.com" to support this. In case of incompatibility, the scp(1) client may be instructed to use the legacy scp/rcp using the -O flag. Relnotes: Yes Sponsored by: The FreeBSD Foundation

|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm
|
|
copies files between hosts on a network.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
It uses
|
|
.Xr ssh 1
|
|
for data transfer, and uses the same authentication and provides the
|
|
same security as a login session.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm
|
|
will ask for passwords or passphrases if they are needed for
|
|
authentication.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar source
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar target
|
|
may be specified as a local pathname, a remote host with optional path
|
|
in the form
|
|
.Sm off
|
|
.Oo user @ Oc host : Op path ,
|
|
.Sm on
|
|
or a URI in the form
|
|
.Sm off
|
|
.No scp:// Oo user @ Oc host Oo : port Oc Op / path .
|
|
.Sm on
|
|
Local file names can be made explicit using absolute or relative pathnames
|
|
to avoid
|
|
.Nm
|
|
treating file names containing
|
|
.Sq :\&
|
|
as host specifiers.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
When copying between two remote hosts, if the URI format is used, a
|
|
.Ar port
|
|
cannot be specified on the
|
|
.Ar target
|
|
if the
|
|
.Fl R
|
|
option is used.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
|
.It Fl 3
|
|
Copies between two remote hosts are transferred through the local host.
|
|
Without this option the data is copied directly between the two remote
|
|
hosts.
|
|
Note that, when using the legacy SCP protocol (via the
|
|
.Fl O
|
|
flag), this option
|
|
selects batch mode for the second host as
|
|
.Nm
|
|
cannot ask for passwords or passphrases for both hosts.
|
|
This mode is the default.
|
|
.It Fl 4
|
|
Forces
|
|
.Nm
|
|
to use IPv4 addresses only.
|
|
.It Fl 6
|
|
Forces
|
|
.Nm
|
|
to use IPv6 addresses only.
|
|
.It Fl A
|
|
Allows forwarding of
|
|
.Xr ssh-agent 1
|
|
to the remote system.
|
|
The default is not to forward an authentication agent.
|
|
.It Fl B
|
|
Selects batch mode (prevents asking for passwords or passphrases).
|
|
.It Fl C
|
|
Compression enable.
|
|
Passes the
|
|
.Fl C
|
|
flag to
|
|
.Xr ssh 1
|
|
to enable compression.
|
|
.It Fl c Ar cipher
|
|
Selects the cipher to use for encrypting the data transfer.
|
|
This option is directly passed to
|
|
.Xr ssh 1 .
|
|
.It Fl D Ar sftp_server_path
|
|
When using the SFTP protocol support via
|
|
.Fl M ,
|
|
connect directly to a local SFTP server program rather than a
|
|
remote one via
|
|
.Xr ssh 1 .
|
|
This option may be useful in debugging the client and server.
|
|
.It Fl F Ar ssh_config
|
|
Specifies an alternative
|
|
per-user configuration file for
|
|
.Nm ssh .
|
|
This option is directly passed to
|
|
.Xr ssh 1 .
|
|
.It Fl i Ar identity_file
|
|
Selects the file from which the identity (private key) for public key
|
|
authentication is read.
|
|
This option is directly passed to
|
|
.Xr ssh 1 .
|
|
.It Fl J Ar destination
|
|
Connect to the target host by first making an
|
|
.Nm
|
|
connection to the jump host described by
|
|
.Ar destination
|
|
and then establishing a TCP forwarding to the ultimate destination from
|
|
there.
|
|
Multiple jump hops may be specified separated by comma characters.
|
|
This is a shortcut to specify a
|
|
.Cm ProxyJump
|
|
configuration directive.
|
|
This option is directly passed to
|
|
.Xr ssh 1 .
|
|
.It Fl l Ar limit
|
|
Limits the used bandwidth, specified in Kbit/s.
|
|
.It Fl O
|
|
Use the legacy SCP protocol for file transfers instead of the SFTP protocol.
|
|
Forcing the use of the SCP protocol may be necessary for servers that do
|
|
not implement SFTP, for backwards-compatibility for particular filename
|
|
wildcard patterns and for expanding paths with a
|
|
.Sq ~
|
|
prefix for older SFTP servers.
|
|
.It Fl o Ar ssh_option
|
|
Can be used to pass options to
|
|
.Nm ssh
|
|
in the format used in
|
|
.Xr ssh_config 5 .
|
|
This is useful for specifying options
|
|
for which there is no separate
|
|
.Nm scp
|
|
command-line flag.
|
|

|
.El
|
|
.It Fl P Ar port
|
|
Specifies the port to connect to on the remote host.
|
|
Note that this option is written with a capital
|
|
.Sq P ,
|
|
because
|
|
.Fl p
|
|
is already reserved for preserving the times and mode bits of the file.
|
|
.It Fl p
|
|
Preserves modification times, access times, and file mode bits from the
|
|
source file.
|
|
.It Fl q
|
|
Quiet mode: disables the progress meter as well as warning and diagnostic
|
|
messages from
|
|
.Xr ssh 1 .
|
|
.It Fl R
|
|
Copies between two remote hosts are performed by connecting to the origin
|
|
host and executing
|
|
.Nm
|
|
there.
|
|
This requires that
|
|
.Nm
|
|
running on the origin host can authenticate to the destination host without
|
|
requiring a password.
|
|
.It Fl r
|
|
Recursively copy entire directories.
|
|
Note that
|
|
.Nm
|
|
follows symbolic links encountered in the tree traversal.
|
|
.It Fl S Ar program
|
|
Name of
|
|
.Ar program
|
|
to use for the encrypted connection.
|
|
The program must understand
|
|
.Xr ssh 1
|
|
options.
|
|
.It Fl T
|
|
Disable strict filename checking.
|
|
By default when copying files from a remote host to a local directory
|
|
.Nm
|
|
checks that the received filenames match those requested on the command-line
|
|
to prevent the remote end from sending unexpected or unwanted files.
|
|
Because of differences in how various operating systems and shells interpret
|
|
filename wildcards, these checks may cause wanted files to be rejected.
|
|
This option disables these checks at the expense of fully trusting that
|
|
the server will not send unexpected filenames.
|
|
.It Fl v
|
|
Verbose mode.
|
|
Causes
|
|
.Nm
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr ssh 1
|
|
to print debugging messages about their progress.
|
|
This is helpful in
|
|
debugging connection, authentication, and configuration problems.

|
|
The legacy SCP protocol (selected by the
|
|
.Fl O
|
|
flag) requires execution of the remote user's shell to perform
|
|
.Xr glob 3
|
|
pattern matching.
|
|
This requires careful quoting of any characters that have special meaning to
|
|
the remote shell, such as quote characters.
