I'm somewhat surprised, because when I was thinking of large files, I was thinking of CD image size files. (I used to transfer these over a 33 kbps modem, requiring about 65 hours per image, spread out over (typically) 5 nights. Oh, the good old days ;-) I don't really have any good thoughts to offer. I'd be looking to make sure that no temporary storage areas have been filled (presumably /tmp on either machine), in fact, I'd probably do a df for all partitions on both machines and make sure all of them have plenty of space (a nice big multiple of 23 MB--I don't really know how much storage rsync, or scp need, but I'm just "grasping at straws" looking for possibilities. While rsync may do some thinking (i.e., pause) during a 23 MB file transfer, I don't think scp would, but there still might be something that is timing out. All from me is just random speculation, however. Good luck--I hope someone else will have some better suggestions for you. Randy Kramer > So now I think I have a problem with transfering large files.
