Unfortunately, I don't know of a way to "intercept" a scp request in the manner you've described (uploading to a remote host). But it kind of sounds like you're trying to use the wrong tool. Perhaps you may find rsync to be more accommodating of your situation; although admittedly I don't know if it can entirely protect you from this either. Only other thing off the top of my head would be git or svn or similar. -- |_|O|_| |_|_|O| Github: https://github.com/dpurgert |O|O|O| PGP: 05CA 9A50 3F2E 1335 4DC5 4AEE 8E11 DDF3 1279 A281
