[ale] SSH3.1.0 scp failure (a mystery to me) cont...

Tue Jan 14 17:09:07 EST 2003

Here below is a successful 3.1.0 client to a 2.0.13 server scp transfer
(Not all is shown, just the part after the password is given).  Shows
that, yes, it does try to remove the file from the remote machine before
pushing the new file.  Also, my recompile on the newly built server and
reinstall of the recompiled binaries on my test machines ended up with
the exact same behaviour.  Yuk!!!  I've tried several changes in the
ssh2_config and sshd2_config files.  I've also tried eliminating any
possible output from login scripts.  The login scripts are the same on
the client 3.1.0 machine and 2.0.13 server output below as with the test
machines both of which are running 3.1.0.  I am ready for advice now as
have hit rock bottom on my knowledge.  Thanks,
Dow
