I know how to use rcp and tried using scp but got this error...
(mach1 and mach2 are Linux O/S)

    [dwoods@mach1 ~]$ scp x212 mach2.com:/ 
    dwoods@mach2's password: 
tty(not a tty) with TERM=dumb
    [dwoods@mach1 ~]$ Write failed flushing stdout buffer.
    write stdout: Broken pipe

I figured out it was the "tty..." line that I echo out upon login.
This is used to let me know the TERM setting.

I modified my .bashrc file to say
if [ x$TERM != xdumb ]; then echo "tty(`tty`) with TERM=$TERM"; fi

and scp now works.  But why did an echo interfere with scp ?
Is there another way I should have handled this ?

Thanks... Dan.
