I have the same kind of problem (without the -3 option). > -Copies between two remote hosts are permitted. > +Copies between two remote hosts are permitted and are implemented > +efficiently by connecting to host2, and sending scp commands > +requesting the files from [[user@]host1]... over scp.

Actually it seems to do the opposite: connect to host1, and host1 connects to host2 (BTW, that's why it should be documented, because both ways are not equivalent). It should also say how the hosts are interpreted: both hosts related to the local .ssh/config, or host2 related to the .ssh/config on host1? -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arénaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
