Hi, having a scp problem with IPV6:
I want to copy a local file to a remote server without DNS entry via the
server IPV6 address
(for example "scp file 2001:638:208:ef45:0:ff:fe00:65:)
Syntactical Problem: The first server part (2001) is interpreted as
target host name, the rest as filename, and that produces problems.
I only can solve this problem by making an /etc/hosts entry like
2001:638:208:ef45:0:ff:fe00:65 server
and using "server" instead of the IPV6 address.
Any other solution?
NB: ssh to that IVP6 address runs flawlessly.
Kind regards
