It's almost any connection -- and the few connections that do work don't seem to be related to the destination. It seems more related to transfer size: $ scp bero@linux.cd:linux*tar.bz2 . Password: linux-2.6.27.2.tar.bz2 0% 0 0.0 KB/s - stalled - So, authentication works, and it definitely gets something back or it wouldn't know the filename -- but it stops and just sits there as soon as bigger amounts of data get transferred. It can't be a performance problem on the router - this is a quadcore box that is (currently) almost idle, and has virtually no traffic on either ethernet card. Regards Bernhard
