scp problem

Hi,

I have problem using scp in an AIX machine, where I need to use full path to scp from /dirA but i dont have to from /dirB of the same machine. Below are some details & scp -v output (truncated). I've checked the permission & settings of both dir/FS are the same. Please help.

scenario
scp from serverA to serverB:
scenario1:from serverA:/dirA to serverB:/dirC - need to type full path, if not, error:
scp:SshFCTransfer/sshfc_transfer.c:87: Received error `syserr: No such file or directory, file: (null)/test' (2).
scp:Scp2/scp2.c:775: Received error SSH_FC_ERROR_NO_SUCH_FILE.
scp: warning: stat: test (src): no such file (server msg: 'syserr: No such file or directory, file: (null)/test')

scenario 2:from serverA:/dirB to serverB:/dirC - no need to specify full path, specifying filename will do.

The only difference in the debug output between 2 scenarios are:
scp:SshFCTransfer/sshfc_transfer.c:219: Fething source newline convention extension data.
scp:SshFCTransfer/sshfc_transfer.c:234: Fething dest newline convention extension data.
scp:SshFCTransfer/sshfc_transfer.c:240: Destination sftp-server didn't give newline convention.
scp:SshFCTransfer/sshfc_transfer.c:363: file name: ``(null)''
scp:SshFCTransfer/sshfc_transfer.c:419: basedir = (null)
scp:SshFCTransfer/sshfc_transfer.c:87: Received error `syserr: No such file or directory, file: (null)/test' (2).
scp:Scp2/scp2.c:775: Received error SSH_FC_ERROR_NO_SUCH_FILE.
scp: warning: stat: test (src): no such file (server msg: 'syserr: No such file or directory, file: (null)/test')
scp:Scp2/scp2.c:661: Received error SSH_FC_OK, error message .
scp:ssh_pipe_stream_destroy
debug: SshConnection/sshconn.c:407: EOF from channel stream

can you specify the exact command you are using?

The command I used is as below:

user1@serverA# cd dirA
user1@serverA# scp file1 serverB:/dirC

** result, error as above & file not transferred.

But if i used full path,as below, it works:
user1@serverA# scp /dirA/file1 serverB:/dirC

However, I dont need to specify the fullpath,if I scp a file from /dirB:

user1@serverA# cd dirB
user1@serverA# scp file2 serverB:/dirC
