=head1 DESCRIPTION
=item scp SOURCE, DESTINATION
+Can be called either as a subroutine or a method; however, the subroutine
+interface is depriciated.
+
Calls scp in batch mode, with the B<-B> B<-p> B<-q> and B<-r> options.
+Returns false upon error, with a text error message accessable in
+$scp->{errstr}.
+
+Returns false and sets the B<errstr> attribute if there is an error.

+Returns false and sets the B<errstr> attribute if there is an error.

+=head1 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
+
+Q: How do you supply a password to connect with ssh within a perl script
+using the Net::SSH module?
+
+A: You don't (at least not with this module). Use RSA or DSA keys. See the
+ quick help in the next section and the ssh-keygen(1) manpage.
+
+A #2: See L<Net::SCP::Expect> instead.
+
+Q: My script is "leaking" scp processes.
+
+A: See L<perlfaq8/"How do I avoid zombies on a Unix system">, L<IPC::Open2>,
+L<IPC::Open3> and L<perlfunc/waitpid>.
+
+=head1 GENERATING AND USING SSH KEYS
+
+=over 4
+
+=item 1 Generate keys
+
+Type:
+
+ ssh-keygen -t rsa
+
+And do not enter a passphrase unless you wanted to be prompted for
+one during file copying.
+
+Here is what you will see:
+
+ $ ssh-keygen -t rsa
+ Generating public/private rsa key pair.
+ Enter file in which to save the key (/home/User/.ssh/id_rsa):
+ Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
+
+ Enter same passphrase again:
+
+ Your identification has been saved in /home/User/.ssh/id_rsa.
+ Your public key has been saved in /home/User/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.
+ The key fingerprint is:
+ 5a:cd:2b:0a:cd:d9:15:85:26:79:40:0c:55:2a:f4:23 User@JEFF-CPU
+
+
+=item 2 Copy public to machines you want to upload to
+
+C<id_rsa.pub> is your public key. Copy it to C<~/.ssh> on target machine.
-Ivan Kohler <ivan-netscp@420.am>
+Put a copy of the public key file on each machine you want to log into.
+Name the copy C<authorized_keys> (some implementations name this file
+C<authorized_keys2>)
+
+Then type:
+
+ chmod 600 authorized_keys
+
+Then make sure your home dir on the remote machine is not group or
+world writeable.

+=head1 AUTHORS
+
+Could really use a maintainer with enough time to at least review and apply
+patches more patches. Or the module should just be deprecated in favor of
+Net::SFTP::Expect or Net::SFTP::Foreign and made into a simple compatiblity
+wrapper.
+
+Ivan Kohler <ivan-netscp_pod@420.am>
+
+Major updates Anthony Deaver <bishop@projectmagnus.org>
+
+Thanks to Jon Gunnip <jon@soundbite.com> for fixing a bug with size().
+
+Patch for the mkdir method by Anthony Awtrey <tony@awtrey.com>.

=head1 BUGS
-Not OO.
+Still has no-OO cruft.
In order to work around some problems with commercial SSH2, if the source file
is on the local system, and is not a directory, the B<-r> flag is omitted.
-
-It's probably better just to use SSH1 or OpenSSH <http://www.openssh.com/>
+It's probably better just to use OpenSSH <http://www.openssh.com/> which is
+the de-facto standard these days anyway.
The Net::FTP-style OO stuff is kinda lame. And incomplete.
+iscp doesnt expect you to be logging into the box that you are copying to
+for the first time. so it's completely clueless about how to handle the
+whole 'add this file to known hosts' message so it just hangs after the
+user hits y. (Thanks to John L. Utz III). To avoid this, SSH to the box
+once first.
