So I tried that and got this error message:

scp -v filename joe@192.168.1.68:/home/joe/filename
Executing: program /usr/bin/ssh host 192.168.1.68, user joe, command
scp -v -t /home/joe/filename

= = =   So I examined the ssh_config file and found mostly remarked lines
and no clues that meant anything to me there.

# This is the ssh client system-wide configuration file.  See
# ssh_config(5) for more information.  This file provides defaults for
# users, and the values can be changed in per-user configuration files
# or on the command line.

# Configuration data is parsed as follows:
#  1. command line options
#  2. user-specific file
#  3. system-wide file
# Any configuration value is only changed the first time it is set.
# Thus, host-specific definitions should be at the beginning of the
# configuration file, and defaults at the end.

# Site-wide defaults for some commonly used options.  For a comprehensive
# list of available options, their meanings and defaults, please see the
# ssh_config(5) man page.
