Hi all, when I try to copy any file with scp on Mac OS X Snow Leopard from another machine I get this error:
scp [email protected]:/home/me/file.zip .
Password:
...
---> Couldn't open /dev/null: Permission denied
this is the output of "ls -l /dev/null":
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 3, 2 May 14 14:10 /dev/null
I am in the group wheel, and even if I do "sudo scp..." it doesn't work. It's driving me crazy, do you have any suggestion? Thanx!
