\S{faq-missing-slash}{Question} PSFTP commands seem to be missing a
directory separator (slash).
Some people have reported the following incorrect behaviour with
PSFTP:
\c psftp> pwd
\e iii
\c Remote directory is /dir1/dir2
\c psftp> get filename.ext
\e iiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
\c /dir1/dir2filename.ext: no such file or directory
This is not a bug in PSFTP. There is a known bug in some versions of
portable OpenSSH
(\W{http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=697}{bug 697}) that
causes these symptoms; it appears to have been introduced around
3.7.x. It manifests only on certain platforms (AIX is what has been
reported to us).
There is a patch for OpenSSH attached to that bug; it's also fixed in
recent versions of portable OpenSSH (from around 3.8).
