Summary: scp back-slash escaping of spaces ignored after
username at hostname: tag
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 4.3p2
Platform: ix86
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Keywords: low-hanging-fruit
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: scp
AssignedTo: bitbucket at mindrot.org
ReportedBy: dcescato at ee.ethz.ch
Back-slash escaping of spaces works when accessing local files:
[genie at homeland ~]$ echo "hello" > spa\ ce
[genie at homeland ~]$ ls -l spa\ ce
-rw-rw-r-- 1 genie genie 6 Jul 3 14:58 spa ce
[genie at homeland ~]$ scp /home/genie/spa\ ce
bugzilla at armageddon.ethz.ch:/home/bugzilla
spa ce 100% 6
0.0KB/s 00:00
The file is actually on the remote machine:
[bugzilla at armageddon ~]$ ls -l spa\ ce
-rw-rw-r-- 1 bugzilla bugzilla 6 Jul 3 14:58 spa ce
If I now try to copy the file from the remote machine, I get the
following error:
[genie at homeland ~]$ rm spa\ ce
[genie at homeland ~]$ scp bugzilla at armageddon.ethz.ch:/home/bugzilla/spa\
ce .
scp: /home/bugzilla/spa: No such file or directory
scp: ce: No such file or directory
Hence, back-slash escaping of spaces after a "username at hostname:" tag
seems to be ignored.
