NAME
ssccpp - secure copy (remote file copy program)
SYNOPSIS
ssccpp [-11224466BBCCEEppqqrrvv] [-cc cipher] [-FF sshconfig] [-ii identityfile]
[-ll limit] [-oo sshoption] [-PP port] [-SS program]
[[user@]host1:]file1 ... [[user@]host2:]file2
DESCRIPTION
ssccpp copies files between hosts on a network. It uses ssh(1) for data
transfer, and uses the same authentication and provides the same security
as ssh(1). Unlike rcp(1), ssccpp will ask for passwords or passphrases if
they are needed for authentication.
File names may contain a user and host specification to indicate that the
file is to be copied to/from that host. Local file names can be made
explicit using absolute or relative pathnames to avoid ssccpp treating file
names containing `:' as host specifiers. Copies between two remote hosts
are also permitted.
The options are as follows:
-11 Forces ssccpp to use protocol 1.
-22 Forces ssccpp to use protocol 2.
-44 Forces ssccpp to use IPv4 addresses only.
-66 Forces ssccpp to use IPv6 addresses only.
-BB Selects batch mode (prevents asking for passwords or
passphrases).
-CC Compression enable. Passes the -CC flag to ssh(1) to enable com-
pression.
-EE Preserves extended attributes, resource forks, and ACLs.
Requires both ends to be running Mac OS X 10.4 or later.
-cc cipher
Selects the cipher to use for encrypting the data transfer. This
option is directly passed to ssh(1).
-FF sshconfig
Specifies an alternative per-user configuration file for sssshh.
This option is directly passed to ssh(1).
-ii identityfile
Selects the file from which the identity (private key) for public
key authentication is read. This option is directly passed to
ssh(1).
-ll limit
Limits the used bandwidth, specified in Kbit/s.
-oo sshoption
Can be used to pass options to sssshh in the format used in
sshconfig(5). This is useful for specifying options for which
there is no separate ssccpp command-line flag. For full details of
the options listed below, and their possible values, see
sshconfig(5).

-PP port
Specifies the port to connect to on the remote host. Note that
this option is written with a capital `P', because -pp is already
reserved for preserving the times and modes of the file in
rcp(1).
-pp Preserves modification times, access times, and modes from the
original file.
-qq Quiet mode: disables the progress meter as well as warning and
diagnostic messages from ssh(1).
-rr Recursively copy entire directories. Note that ssccpp follows sym-
bolic links encountered in the tree traversal.
-SS program
Name of program to use for the encrypted connection. The program
must understand ssh(1) options.
-vv Verbose mode. Causes ssccpp and ssh(1) to print debugging messages
about their progress. This is helpful in debugging connection,
authentication, and configuration problems.
The ssccpp utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
