No, the order of the arguments does not matter.

However, in a parallel calculation of lapw2 it has to know (find) the corresponding
parallel vector-files from lapw1.
For this purpose it uses vec2old_lapw and in case you have a $SCRATCH variable set, it tries
to copy the vectors from the scratch area on the remote cpus to the local "case"-directory.
At this occasion it defines remotecopy (usually as scp) and copies the vectors.

It might be, that w2web or your terminal are configured differently.
