[paramiko] scp not sftp

[erick_bodine at comcast.net]

Supposedly scp is just rcp over an ssh connection.  Have you tried execing rcp instead of scp once you have the channel open?  Perhaps a look at the source of PuTTY (http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html), they have a pscp utility that might yield some clues.
