scp problem

Greetings!

Trying to scp in SERV1 from a fresh installed opensuse-13.2 I get the below result and no file is coped:

wg@SERV1:~$ scp wg@.opensuse13:file.txt file.txt
Password:
C0777 4 file.txt
wg@SERV1:~$ echo $?
1
wg@SERV1:~$

0777 are the permissions of file.txt and 4 is the filesize.
ssh works ok.

scp to/from other machines/opensuse’s in the lan works fine.

Any hints?

Other than the dot after the ‘@’ and before the rest of the hostname, the
syntax looks fine. If you try to write it to a different location on the
local system does that work?


Good luck.

The answer you get is what remote SCP “server” returns to local client, so that it knows permissions and size; but why it suddenly is echoed I do not know. Try “scp -vvv” for increased verbosity and paste both working and non-working cases here.

Apparently even non interactive shell echoes output to tty, so entering

 -z "$PS1" ] && return

in first line of /etc/bash.bashrc solved the problem.

Thanks for your time
