krcp

RCP(1)							    BSD General Commands Manual 						    RCP(1)

NAME

     rcp -- copy file to and from remote machines

SYNOPSIS

     rcp [-45FKpxz] [-P port] file1 file2
     rcp [-45FKprxz] [-P port] file... directory

DESCRIPTION

     rcp copies files between machines. Each file argument is either a remote file name of the form ``rname@rhost:path'' or a local file (contain-
     ing no colon or with a slash before the first colon).

     Supported options:

     -4, -5, -K, -F, -x, -z
	     These options are passed on to rsh(1).

     -P port
	     This will pass the option -p port to rsh(1).

     -p      Preserve file permissions.

     -r      Copy source directories recursively.

DIAGNOSTICS

     rcp is implemented as a protocol on top of rsh(1), and thus requires a working rsh. If you intend to use Kerberos authentication, rsh needs
     to be Kerberos aware, else you may see more or less strange errors, such as "login incorrect", or "lost connection".

HISTORY

     The rcp utility first appeared in 4.2BSD. This version is derived from 4.3BSD-Reno.
