Stroller.
  

it is for bash, but OM distros are using an sh/ash replacement builtin to
busybox.

  
  
~/.bashrc is for bash. What is the corresponding file for sh/ash? ~/.ashrc? or 
~/.shrc?

Greetings, Carsten

  

I use ~/.profile and it seems to work :)
My 2 cents ;)

Interesting.  I usually use SFTP instead of SCP, just a matter of habit.

I tested (Raster's prior image + FSO, uname -a gives Linux iota.newkirk.us
2.6.24 #1 PREEMPT Fri Sep 26 14:13:25 EST 2008 armv4tl unknown)
and both sftp and scp work for me as expected, with
root:Kepdp5b2.52RA:0:0:root:/home/root:/bin/bash in /etc/passwd.  Oh, and
I have a root password set.  I've not tested with ssh-key, since I don't
have that handy here at work.

My suspicions fall on either differing dropbear (Dropbear sshd v0.51)
config or different bash packages.  (GNU bash, version 3.2.39(1)-release
(arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi), installed from FSO repository)

The first thing i always did on my different distros was to replace
bash-busybox with real bash and replace dropbear with openssh. Maybe you
should try this combo to get scp to work again because i never got any
problems with it.

The busybox-bash doesn't support all features the real bash does why i
installed the bash from the repository. I only did this with 2007.2 and
it works flawless. I didn't try it with 2008.9 because i only use debian
on my neo at the monent.
To use bash i only had to edit passwd and nothing else.

Hehe, don't stress :)

I grew up on BSD (94/95) which has always been pretty baron so for a good long 
while before most of the automation existed, I did everything by hand and then 
continued doing it even when I didn't have to :S

chsh was the first thing I checked for though :)

Everything is so abstract now it's easy to forget the bottom layer.
