Subject: openssh-client: scp hangs on named pipes
Package: openssh-client
Version: 1:4.3p2-9
Severity: normal
*** Please type your report below this line ***
scp hangs forever when trying to copy a named pipe from a remote server.
Try the following to reproduce:
(remote)
mkfifo /test
(local)
scp -rp remote:/test .
Password:
(hangs forever here)
(remote)
>echo "free me from hell" > /test
(local)
scp: /test: not a regular file
>
(process ended)
Expected result:
1) The operation should not hang, but print the "not a regular file" error immediatly.
2) scp should print the file it tries to transfer before actually starting the operation. (It is hard to know which$
Remote system runs openssh-server, version 1:4.3p2-9.

Daniel Mellergårdh
