[svlug] Can't rcp between machines

[Alan's Cell]

looks like a wildcard expansion complaint.

Since you are using -r anyway, just drop the trailing /* portion, leaving just the directory pathname.

Hey all,

I'm trying to rcp directories (web sites actually) 
between two machines with the following command:

rcp -r 192.168.0.101:/usr/home/bp/public_html/* .

I've seen dozens of examples just like this on 
various web pages, and I'm certain that all IP 
addresses and directories are correct, pinged 
between both machines to make sure the connection 
is good, and even ssh'd from the destination 
machine to the target server, but I still get:

%rcp -r 192.168.0.101:/usr/home/bp/public_html/* .
rcp: No match.


I know the correct files are in the source 
directory, the permissions are correct.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
