Hi,
i've tried to copy some files from one machine to another with the
command:

[root@freak distfiles]# scp alxkiste:/usr/ports/distfiles/rdate* .

it says:

root@alxkiste's password:
scp: Command not found.

freak is a redhat 5.2 box with ssh-1.2.22-6i (6 is rpm version, i for
international i guess)

alxkiste is freebsd 3.3-stable:
uname -a
FreeBSD alxkiste.freaknet.uhlennet.de 3.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE #0:
Thu Sep 16 23:40:35 GMT 1999
jkh@highwing.cdrom.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC
i386

It happens with both ssh and openssh.
ssh2 is not installed

After making a symlink /usr/bin/scp --> /usr/local/bin/scp it works.
My question:
Is this a bug or am i doing something wrong.
I'm new to bsd, so i hope i don't waste your time asking a faq.

alx
