Someone wrote me privately and said they thought the problem was that
the resource fork was not getting copied when I copied the file with
scp. I thought they got rid of resource forks when they switched to
a BSD based OS. But that would be consistent with your experiences,
since the finder probably copies both forks. Does anyone know if
there's
a way to copy both forks with scp?
