I'm using ssh to connect from my local FreeBSD machine to a

a directory and its subdirectories, from the distant machine

I can do this fine using WS_FTP Pro in Windows, using another
local Windows machine, and then use WS_FTP Pro to copy the files
to the FreeBSD local machine from the Windows computer. It seems
like I should be able to perform the same copy process directly,
from one FreeBSD machine to the other, using ssh.
I can connect to the distant machine just fine using ssh.
For purposes of discussion, I'm logged into the distant machine
as [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm logged in to the directory /www/jay
and my localmachine directory (now empty) is /home/www/jay. I want
everything in the www/jay directory on distantmachine to be copied
as the home/www/jay directory on localmachine.
scp -r [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/www/jay /home/www/jay
