http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-secsh-filexfer-13 says in section 4: The maximum size of a packet is in practice determined by the client (the maximum size of read or write requests that it sends, plus a few bytes of packet overhead). All servers SHOULD support packets of at least 34000 bytes (where the packet size refers to the full length, including the header above). This should allow for reads and writes of at most 32768 bytes. -- / daniel.haxx.se ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SF.Net email is Sponsored by MIX09, March 18-20, 2009 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
