Hi Robert:

francesco@tya64:~$ uname -r
3.2.0-4-amd64
francesco@tya64:~$


I do not understand "tunnel". I use classical scp, passwordless (my pub
keys at the mainframe):

francesco@tya64:~$ scp -p
[email protected]:/gpfs/scratch/userexternal/fpietra0/P2f_accelMD_H2O_PLX/*30.dcd
/home/francesco/PLX


and "stalling" occurs randomly. I did not try with another box, where jelly
is installed. Also, I did not try either from the Linux prompt (actually I
us startx, followed by gnome-session. I am having those problems from the
gnome terminal). I never had such problems from a French server at the Univ
Picardie, but that automatically probalby uses ftp (and it has to be used
from the graphical interface).

Thanks
francesco
