i cannot confirm this. first, scp://somebody@host/users/whatever/dir/ builds directories in ~somebody, and this works fine in my tests. please check: what are user's perms on his homedir? does user's homedir exist? second, if i change that to scp://somebody@host//users/whatever/dir/ then i get directories created in /users/whatever, and my tests show that again it works fine, without having any access privs on /users (but of course normal privs on /users/whatever/). in order to debug this further i need: the full output of a -v9 run, and the output of ls -laR of /users/ and ~user on your targetbox. regards az -- + Alexander Zangerl + DSA 42BD645D + (RSA 5B586291) Q.
