39.Sh DESCRIPTION
40.Nm
41copies files between hosts on a network. It uses
42.Xr ssh 1
43for data transfer, and uses the same authentication and provides the
44same security as
45.Xr ssh 1 .
46Unlike
47.Xr rcp 1 ,
48.Nm
49will ask for passwords or passphrases if they are needed for
50authentication.
51.Pp
52Any file name may contain a host and user specification to indicate
53that the file is to be copied to/from that host. Copies between two
54remote hosts are permitted.
55.Pp
56The options are as follows:
57.Bl -tag -width Ds
58.It Fl c Ar cipher
59Selects the cipher to use for encrypting the data transfer. This
60option is directly passed to
61.Xr ssh 1 .
62.It Fl i Ar identity_file
63Selects the file from which the identity (private key) for RSA
64authentication is read. This option is directly passed to
65.Xr ssh 1 .
66.It Fl p
67Preserves modification times, access times, and modes from the
68original file.
69.It Fl r
70Recursively copy entire directories.
71.It Fl v
72Verbose mode. Causes
73.Nm
74and
75.Xr ssh 1
76to print debugging messages about their progress. This is helpful in
77debugging connection, authentication, and configuration problems.
78.It Fl B
79Selects batch mode (prevents asking for passwords or passphrases).
80.It Fl q
81Disables the progress meter.
82.It Fl C
83Compression enable. Passes the
84.Fl C
85flag to
86.Xr ssh 1
87to enable compression.
88.It Fl P Ar port
89Specifies the port to connect to on the remote host. Note that this
90option is written with a capital
91.Sq P ,
92because
93.Fl p
94is already reserved for preserving the times and modes of the file in
95.Xr rcp 1 .
96.Sh AUTHORS

98.Sh HISTORY
99.Nm
100is based on the
101.Xr rcp 1
102program in BSD source code from the Regents of the University of
103California.
