--- Comment #2 from engrenage <bugzilla.mindrot at engrenage.ch> ---
$ scp user1 at host1:source user2 at host2:dest


When copying between two remote hosts, the host1 is _instructed_ to
copy files over to the second host using host1:~user1/.ssh/config and
the keys in the same directory. Local config is used to connect to
host1 in the first place, _not_ after.

Using -3 flag works fine with local config used for both hosts.


I would close this as INABIAF.
