I have the dropbear server running on a PPC-based embedded board.
I can ssh into it just fine.   But when I try to scp to or from
this dropbear server (using an openssh scp client, that's the only
one I've tried), it hangs after successful authentication with
a password.


On the client side:
1236$ scp [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp/test /tmp
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:
<hangs here>

On the dropbear server side (running dropbear -F -E):
[103] Jan 01 00:16:12 Child connection from 137.38.228.162:41937
[103] Jan 01 00:16:14 password auth succeeded for 'root' from 137.38.228.162:41937
<no more output, until I CTRL-C the scp client, then I see...>
[103] Jan 01 00:18:10 exit after auth (root): Exited normally


What am I doing wrong?    I've tried 0.47 and 0.48.1, with the
same results.   I'm doing a generic build, nothing disabled, and no
multi-binary build.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks, Steve

A few more details:

* scp does not get/send the file at all (so it is different from the
 Oct '06 report of an scp hang where the file was actually transferred)
* the dropbear process for this scp is sleeping (no cpu usage)
* I get the same results if I start dropbear standalone or from inetd
* strace of the dropbear process shows it stuck on a select() after
 authentication (with an occasional gettimeofday() call).

Any ideas would be very helpful, thanks!
