HP-UX Reference (11i v1 05/09) - 1 User Commands N-Z (vol 2)

rcp(1) rcp(1)

rhost2, each expect a different form for the remote target, the command:

rcp rhost1:path1 rhost2:path2 rhost3.ruser3:path3

will certainly fail on one of the source systems. Perform such a transfer using two separate commands.

DIAGNOSTICS

Diagnostics can occur from both the local and remote hosts. Those diagnostics that occur on the local host

before the connection is completely established are written to standard error. Once the connection is esta-

blished, any error messages from the remote host are written to standard output, like any other data.

Error! could not retrieve authentication type.

Please notify sys admin.

There are two authentication mechanisms used by

rcp. One authentication mechanism is based on

Kerberos and the other is not. The type of authentication mechanism is obtained from a system ﬁle

which is updated by inetsvcs_sec(1M). If the system ﬁle does not contain known authentication types,

the above error is displayed.

Kerberos is not supported in IPv6. Ignoring kerberos authentication

On a IPv6 enabled system, if Kerberos based authentication mechanism is set, the above error is

displayed and the user authorization is done in a non-secure or traditional environment.
