It uses +.Xr ssh 1 +for data transfer, and uses the same authentication and provides the +same security as +.Xr ssh 1 . +Unlike +.Xr rcp 1 , +.Nm +will ask for passwords or passphrases if they are needed for +authentication. +.Pp +Any file name may contain a host and user specification to indicate +that the file is to be copied to/from that host. Copies between two +remote hosts are permitted. +.Pp +The options are as follows: +.Bl -tag -width Ds +.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 i Ar identity_file +Selects the file from which the identity (private key) for RSA +authentication is read. This option is directly passed to +.Xr ssh 1 . +.It Fl p +Preserves modification times, access times, and modes from the +original file. +.It Fl r +Recursively copy entire directories. +.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. +.It Fl B +Selects batch mode (prevents asking for passwords or passphrases). +.It Fl q +Disables the progress meter. +.It Fl C +Compression enable. Passes the +.Fl C +flag to +.Xr ssh 1 +to enable compression. +.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 modes of the file in +.Xr rcp 1 . +.Sh AUTHORS +Timo Rinne <tri@iki.fi> and Tatu Ylonen <ylo@cs.hut.fi> +.Sh HISTORY +.Nm +is based on the +.Xr rcp 1 +program in BSD source code from the Regents of the University of +California. +.Sh SEE ALSO +.Xr rcp 1 , +.Xr ssh 1 , +.Xr ssh-add 1 , +.Xr ssh-agent 1 , +.Xr ssh-keygen 1 , +.Xr sshd 8 |
