SCP During Transfer to SunOS
Hi,

I'd like to seek your help in finding the cause of this problem. I utilize SCP command to transfer files from one server to another. I utilize the return code that SCP return so as to verify if transfer is ok or not. Below is a sample code that I created.

Code:
if scp /some/folder/sample.txt <userName>@<ipAddress>:/some/remote/path/
then
  echo "Successful"
else
  echo "Failed"
fi

This code is ok with Linux, AIX and HP-UX and it always return "Successful". But I just observed that it does not hold true when I transfer the file to SunOS (SunOS 5.9). It always return "Failed" transaction. But the file was transferred successfully to the SunOS remote server.

BTW, my staging server is running on Linux. Thanks in advance.
