This is a problem that I have fairly often. It happens between various pairs of computers, but always at least one of the two is at the U. I'll start transferring a big file via scp and will eventually see the KB/s decline until the ETA disappears and it says "- stalled -" instead of the ETA. Any idea what that is about? It could happen at any time in the process -- the last few attempts failed at 109MB, 16MB and 45MB while downloading an ubuntu .iso file. I was also unable to do it via web browser. Mike
