>Description:
The -L option available in SSH package from /usr/ports/security/ssh allows
to pass a -P option to ssh when using scp command. This is helpful when doing
a secure copy from a network where a firewall doesn't permit outgoing connections 
on privileged ports. In ssh itself this option is supported as -P and the manpage
reads:      

     -P      Use a non-privileged port for outgoing connections.  This can be
             used if your firewall does not permit connections from privileged
             ports.  Note that this option turns off RhostsAuthentication and
             RhostsRSAAuthentication.

I have included a patch to /usr/src/crypto/openssh/scp.c dated Fri Feb  2.

Sincerely,
Alex.
