2009-02-21 15:15:56 Caspar Clemens Mierau openssh: statusexplanation Thanks for taking the time to report this problem. It is actually not a bug but rather normal behaviour. The trouble you are in is that special characters need to be "escaped". This are not only brackets, but also white spaces like " ". So, if you want to transfer a file try this: file name "test[ ].txt" $ scp SERVER:test\\\[\\\ \\\].txt DESTINATION If you want a comformatable way, try installing a shell like "zsh" and configure auto completion as this enables you to handle this in a very comfortable way. Feel free to ask in Launchpad Answers for this. Best.
