Hello! scp hangs while copying file over a certain size. Here's the output of scp in verbose mode: scp -v test.pdf pc: Executing: program /usr/bin/ssh host pc, user (unspecified), command scp -v -t .

The Terminal writes he uploaded 100% but the file is emtpy (0 byte). The openssh version used in cygwin seems to have a similar problem with dual core machines. I'm using Archlinux on a dual core. Does anybody has the same problem? Regards, Michael References 1. mailto:user at 192.168.0.2 2. mailto:no-more-sessions at openssh.com
