[bug-inetutils] rcp -p bug

Hi,

I saw that rcp -p was failing to set the modification time. Actually the
code indicates that it swaps the modification and access times, since it
sends

  Ta_sec a_usec m_sec m_usec

but reads

  Tm_sec m_usec a_sec a_usec

The following patch seems to fix the problem.

diff -ur inetutils-1.4.2-orig/rcp/rcp.c inetutils-1.4.2/rcp/rcp.c
--- inetutils-1.4.2-orig/rcp/rcp.c      2002-09-02 15:14:39.000000000

   snprintf (buf, sizeof(buf), "T%ld %ld %ld %ld\n",
-           a_sec, a_usec, m_sec, m_usec);
+           m_sec, m_usec, a_sec, a_usec);
   return write (fd, buf, strlen (buf));
 }
 
I suppose that I could instead change the reading code, but other
implementations I found (netkit-rsh-0.17 and rsh-redone-66) seemed to
expect the modification time first. Is there a protocol specification I
could check to be sure?

Regards,
Tim.
