I'm not sure i quite understand the reason for "through a gateway
machine"...
Is it that the internal server cannot get to the internal.com itself?
Either way... i believe the fact that scp can be used to copy from one
remote location to another may be of some help.
scp user host:source user host:destination
You get prompted for two passwords and your set...
Hope this helps...

Trevor,
Thanks for the suggestion... I surely did not make myself clear in what I was trying to do. I would like to copy a file from a remote machine through a gateway having the new file reside on an internal server.
Your syntax worked beautifully to all remote copying of a file on the gateway to an internal server.
To use your syntax here is what I would like to do, but have not been able to make it happen.
scp /usr/local/bin/filename user@gateway user@internal:/usr/local/bin/filename
The part that I obviously do not understand is the syntax for user@gateway.
Greg
