I guess here is the problem.... :
/usr/bin/scp -v -t /home/bu/in/fromswitch

doesn't seem to be valid, as IMHO scp sees /home/bu/in/fromswitch as
the source and the destination is missing.

I actually see this with an strace:

DEBUG1.29480:execve("/usr/sbin/scponlyc", ["scponlyc", "-c", "scp -v
-t /home/bu/in/fromswitch"], [/* 8 vars */]) = 0
DEBUG1.29480:execve("/usr/bin/scp", ["/usr/bin/scp", "-v", "-t",
"/home/bu/in/fromswitch"], [/* 0 vars */]) = 0
DEBUG1.29480:stat("/home/bu/in/fromswitch", 0x7fff885412a0) = -1
ENOENT (No such file or directory)

Is there anyone who can help ?
Do you need further debugging output ?

Any help is appreciated.


Thank you!
