Display type:		cgthree

What were you trying to do?
copy files remotely

What's wrong:
It creates files with the name "(null)".

What should have happened:
It should have copied them with their real names.

For example:

% rcp -r granola:/build/afs/athena/src/afs ..
rcp: ../afs/RCS/(null): Permission denied
rcp: ../afs/RCS/(null): Permission denied
rcp: ../afs/RCS/(null): Permission denied

... goes on a while ...

% ls
(null)  RCS
% ls RCS
(null)
