RE: [ILUG] scp host routing?

Not sure if this is what your looking for
- but you could make an ssh tunnel between two of the hosts.

For example you could create a tunnel
from cat to bat, then you'd just copy (scp) your moo.txt
to a different port on bat from host axe, and the file would
be transfered to host cat.

The tunnel is created from a port redirect.
Look up ssh -R in the man page. Its not going to be
quite as short and sweet a command though, but you can
always wrap a script around it if its something you do regularly.

Subject: [ILUG] scp host routing?

let's say i have three hosts axe, bat and cat. i want to copy moo.txt
from axe to cat but i have to "hop" across bat. in uucp i'd just do:

    uucp moo.txt bat!cat!moo.txt

anyone know if this is possible in an ssh client? openssh doesn't seem
to have this.
