Local file names can be made explicit + using absolute or relative pathnames to avoid scp treating file names + containing M-bM-^@M-^X:M-bM-^@M-^Y as host specifiers. + + When copying between two remote hosts, if the URI format is used, a port + cannot be specified on the target if the -R option is used. + + The options are as follows: + + -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 -O flag), this option selects batch mode for + the second host as scp cannot ask for passwords or passphrases + for both hosts. This mode is the default. + + -4 Forces scp to use IPv4 addresses only. + + -6 Forces scp to use IPv6 addresses only. + + -A Allows forwarding of ssh-agent(1) to the remote system. The + default is not to forward an authentication agent. + + -B Selects batch mode (prevents asking for passwords or + passphrases). + + -C Compression enable. Passes the -C flag to ssh(1) to enable + compression. + + -c cipher + Selects the cipher to use for encrypting the data transfer. This + option is directly passed to ssh(1). + + -D sftp_server_path + Connect directly to a local SFTP server program rather than a + remote one via ssh(1). This option may be useful in debugging + the client and server. + + -F ssh_config + Specifies an alternative per-user configuration file for ssh. + This option is directly passed to ssh(1). + + -i identity_file + Selects the file from which the identity (private key) for public + key authentication is read. This option is directly passed to + ssh(1). + + -J destination + Connect to the target host by first making an scp connection to + the jump host described by 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 ProxyJump configuration directive. + This option is directly passed to ssh(1). + + -l limit + Limits the used bandwidth, specified in Kbit/s. + + -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 M-bM-^@M-^X~M-bM-^@M-^Y prefix for older SFTP servers. + + -o ssh_option + Can be used to pass options to ssh in the format used in + ssh_config(5). This is useful for specifying options for which + there is no separate scp command-line flag. For full details of + the options listed below, and their possible values, see + ssh_config(5). + + AddressFamily + BatchMode + BindAddress + BindInterface + CanonicalDomains + CanonicalizeFallbackLocal + CanonicalizeHostname + CanonicalizeMaxDots + CanonicalizePermittedCNAMEs + CASignatureAlgorithms + CertificateFile + CheckHostIP + Ciphers + Compression + ConnectionAttempts + ConnectTimeout + ControlMaster + ControlPath + ControlPersist + GlobalKnownHostsFile + GSSAPIAuthentication + GSSAPIDelegateCredentials + HashKnownHosts + Host + HostbasedAcceptedAlgorithms + HostbasedAuthentication + HostKeyAlgorithms + HostKeyAlias + Hostname + IdentitiesOnly + IdentityAgent + IdentityFile + IPQoS + KbdInteractiveAuthentication + KbdInteractiveDevices + KexAlgorithms + KnownHostsCommand + LogLevel + MACs + NoHostAuthenticationForLocalhost + NumberOfPasswordPrompts + PasswordAuthentication + PKCS11Provider + Port + PreferredAuthentications + ProxyCommand + ProxyJump + PubkeyAcceptedAlgorithms + PubkeyAuthentication + RekeyLimit + RequiredRSASize + SendEnv + ServerAliveInterval + ServerAliveCountMax + SetEnv + StrictHostKeyChecking + TCPKeepAlive + UpdateHostKeys + User + UserKnownHostsFile + VerifyHostKeyDNS + + -P port + Specifies the port to connect to on the remote host. Note that + this option is written with a capital M-bM-^@M-^XPM-bM-^@M-^Y, because -p is already + reserved for preserving the times and mode bits of the file. + + -p Preserves modification times, access times, and file mode bits + from the source file. + + -q Quiet mode: disables the progress meter as well as warning and + diagnostic messages from ssh(1). + + -R Copies between two remote hosts are performed by connecting to + the origin host and executing scp there. This requires that scp + running on the origin host can authenticate to the destination + host without requiring a password. + + -r Recursively copy entire directories. Note that scp follows + symbolic links encountered in the tree traversal. + + -S program + Name of program to use for the encrypted connection. The program + must understand ssh(1) options. + + -T Disable strict filename checking. By default when copying files + from a remote host to a local directory scp 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. + + -v Verbose mode. Causes scp and ssh(1) to print debugging messages + about their progress. This is helpful in debugging connection, + authentication, and configuration problems. + + -X sftp_option + Specify an option that controls aspects of SFTP protocol + behaviour. The valid options are: + + nrequests=value + Controls how many concurrent SFTP read or write requests + may be in progress at any point in time during a download + or upload. By default 64 requests may be active + concurrently. + + buffer=value + Controls the maximum buffer size for a single SFTP + read/write operation used during download or upload. By + default a 32KB buffer is used. + +EXIT STATUS + The scp utility exitsM-BM- 0 on success, andM-BM- >0 if an error occurs. + +SEE ALSO + sftp(1), ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-agent(1), ssh-keygen(1), ssh_config(5), + sftp-server(8), sshd(8) + +HISTORY + scp is based on the rcp program in BSD source code from the Regents of + the University of California. + + Since OpenSSH 9.0, scp has used the SFTP protocol for transfers by + default. + +AUTHORS + Timo Rinne <tri@iki.fi> + Tatu Ylonen <ylo@cs.hut.fi> + +CAVEATS + The legacy SCP protocol (selected by the -O flag) requires execution of + the remote user's shell to perform glob(3) pattern matching.
