Hello Jim,

Consider also checking your firewall settings. Many firewalls will suspect nefarious transfers when many small files or one very large one goes across. It happens so often with the newer firewalls it's getting to be a knee jerk reaction.

I highly doubt that. The connection is encrypted and I'm not aware of firewalls being aware of MITM cracking an ssh connection. Ssh is not the same as ssl.

They *could* use heuristics to guess about the type of traffic when watching packet rates and sizes, though.

:wq! PoC
