Hi
I'm using cygwin:rcp to retrieve files from a remote linux server

I can retrieve single files just fine


e.g.

rcp root@111.111.111.111:/var/html/www/scripts/backup.php .

but 

rcp root@111.111.111.111:/var/html/www/scripts/*.php .

reports  "no Matches"

I guess it's a setting on the remote server in .rhosts etc please advise
