6SYNOPSIS
7 scp [-346BCpqrv] [-c cipher] [-F ssh_config] [-i identity_file]
8 [-l limit] [-o ssh_option] [-P port] [-S program] source ... target

10DESCRIPTION
11 scp copies files between hosts on a network. It uses ssh(1) for data
12 transfer, and uses the same authentication and provides the same security
13 as ssh(1). scp will ask for passwords or passphrases if they are needed
14 for authentication.
15
16 The source and target may be specified as a local pathname, a remote host
17 with optional path in the form [user@]host:[path], or a URI in the form
18 scp://[user@]host[:port][/path]. Local file names can be made explicit
19 using absolute or relative pathnames to avoid scp treating file names
20 containing M-bM-^@M-^X:M-bM-^@M-^Y as host specifiers.
21
22 When copying between two remote hosts, if the URI format is used, a port
23 may only be specified on the target if the -3 option is used.
24
25 The options are as follows:
26
27 -3 Copies between two remote hosts are transferred through the local
28 host. Without this option the data is copied directly between
29 the two remote hosts. Note that this option disables the
30 progress meter.
31
32 -4 Forces scp to use IPv4 addresses only.
33
34 -6 Forces scp to use IPv6 addresses only.
35
36 -B Selects batch mode (prevents asking for passwords or
37 passphrases).
38
39 -C Compression enable. Passes the -C flag to ssh(1) to enable
40 compression.
41
42 -c cipher
43 Selects the cipher to use for encrypting the data transfer. This
44 option is directly passed to ssh(1).
45
46 -F ssh_config
47 Specifies an alternative per-user configuration file for ssh.
48 This option is directly passed to ssh(1).
49
50 -i identity_file
51 Selects the file from which the identity (private key) for public
52 key authentication is read. This option is directly passed to
53 ssh(1).
54
55 -l limit
56 Limits the used bandwidth, specified in Kbit/s.
57
58 -o ssh_option
59 Can be used to pass options to ssh in the format used in
60 ssh_config(5). This is useful for specifying options for which
61 there is no separate scp command-line flag. For full details of
62 the options listed below, and their possible values, see
63 ssh_config(5).

125
126 -P port
127 Specifies the port to connect to on the remote host. Note that
128 this option is written with a capital M-bM-^@M-^XPM-bM-^@M-^Y, because -p is already
129 reserved for preserving the times and modes of the file.
130
131 -p Preserves modification times, access times, and modes from the
132 original file.
133
134 -q Quiet mode: disables the progress meter as well as warning and
135 diagnostic messages from ssh(1).
136
137 -r Recursively copy entire directories. Note that scp follows
138 symbolic links encountered in the tree traversal.
139
140 -S program
141 Name of program to use for the encrypted connection. The program
142 must understand ssh(1) options.
143
144 -v Verbose mode. Causes scp and ssh(1) to print debugging messages
145 about their progress. This is helpful in debugging connection,
146 authentication, and configuration problems.
147
148EXIT STATUS
149 The scp utility exitsM-BM- 0 on success, andM-BM- >0 if an error occurs.
