[scponly] .bash_logout and scponly

[wby oblyr]

well, its a brutal hack, but as root you could move your scp binary to scp_foo and create a shell script 
called "scp"  this script could look like this:

#!/bin/sh
#
# pass on the args to the "real" binary

/bin/scp_binary $@

# process the args and in the case where scp -t is invoked, 
# strip the destination filename from the args, and make a copy of it

...



just an idea.  a bad bad, hacky idea, but an idea.
