I am seeing this same problem (except for the protocol error) on my
4.7-stable systems. Is recursive rcp really broken in -stable, or am I
halucinating here?
Note that on my -current and old 3.5 systems rcp -r is working as
expected. Here's what I get:
bob@luke:pc /tmp> mkdir x
bob@luke:pc /tmp> touch x/{a,b,c,d}
bob@luke:pc /tmp> rcp -r x rancor:/tmp
rcp: /tmp/x/a/b: Not a directory
rcp: /tmp/x/a/b/c: Not a directory
rcp: /tmp/x/a/b/c/d: Not a directory
and on the target system we have just:
bob@rancor:p7 /tmp> ls -l x
total 0
-rw-r--r-- 1 bob wheel 0 Jan 28 17:00 a
I have tried this same test on three of my relatively recent -stable
systems here with identical results.
