Re: SFTP client via PASE, large files possibly timing out

[Scott Klement <midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

FWIW..  I have used sftp to send extremely large files, such as whole 
server backups, without any problems at all.  I did not have to set up 
anything in particular, it just worked.

When you are having trouble with your larger files (imho, 110mb isn't 
really very big) does it always stop at the exact same byte position? 
Or does it vary?

If it varies, I'd suggest this is probably a network issue rather than a 
software issue.  A flaky cable/switch/router/etc is causing the data to 
get screwed up somewhere, causing the transfer to abort.

IF it's always the same, then I would look for some sort of size limit 
being set up somewhere, most likely on the server-side.

Also, you could also try using scp rather than sftp and see if that 
matters at all.  Just as a lark...
