I see. I never thought that dd can be killed by out-of-memory. Unfortunately, sftp is disabled in most ssh installations. Maybe when mc starts supporting sftp, it will be more often enabled, but it will take time. scp, on the other hand, doesn't provide directory listing. Maybe we could use scp transfers in FiSH? -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ Mc-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc-devel
