The first example is trying to copy mlapier@192.168.15.105: to /home/mlapier/.thunderbird (with the third parameter /home/mlapier/.thunderbird ignored). The successful example is trying to copy mlapier@192.168.15.105:"/home/mlapier/.thunderbird" to /home/mlapier which is what I assume you intended. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJU8zeQAAoJEAF3yXsqtyBl5LMP/0vpm5iK/wpIzcUa8RoYpY7n 9R5IratPZ4NRP1V9XkC/VPEEf9gpwQ2RHASIyZvy6KFAGC0T/dHhtQXO27CE1mG5 K+MCGRAZvPXMbW/bHqDfqkH88DwmaRcmH/doRn2dUPGZpTRKrwyz/40qBBkkEYuF wi0+jeGpdwc/dC99rwVFTi8/G2OeVx6WSTHqpjMWn5Okl3E5bI7px+Z0EmARxP44 iqPDHoOfY7m17w3YwNePdO0vBcXlQKVMXb/0hP4G7Tvbt2+Z9i987ZzxcGf4pFbx MPO7wjIOuxsn4qUqBjXMWo6TnpsCBAv8XQeQk9Zxs3H9kVCZig8N7ITL5zWkgi2h 8FcQQWcmO3mZYbTsQY9JoqQo6JS/WGFrcfUrxwblz0qcXLcEe6t5+68cav3fXogh MGwaNXJeCU/Wc/ABQ/M4OONtZe8SEVcYecZzGrPQU6e86KuUMXo2oU6DgkcWQOiL 0Aap3gHw1Dq3Zm9K1I2IHPIqPVRLG2sIghLY1LjfsWYs4u35FXHb9vEzy33o86ml /SxvOR7QbWy7KPIlDdkJqcRMG6gYaV5/tfF6VaMg4HNmZkcmhVpAe9E4z3sXcYv5 q/WVfNWOw/UnrqEbFLq7N/uFNGvVpr4jSGxIYypyGTiJNq7fENrFs2ojEP8PAhMT f0blE1F6PVz+p4BGkRsV =rhcc -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
