Hello,
I'm trying to scp a large file (9 gig) from a Sun server, OS Solaris 8 to
a Sun Ultra 5 using OpenSSH_3.7.1. The file transfer always hangs at or
around 3 gig. I know this is an older version of OpenSSH and this may
have been resolved in a later version. But if there is someone who knows
how to correct this without upgrading, I'd really appreciate your
assistance. I cannot upgrade the servers at this time > because these are
production servers. Thanks in advance.

Not sure but this might be the cause. The destination filesystem may not
support large files. If this is not an issue you can pipe the large file
thru ssh tunnel as follows
cat largefile |ssh remotehost 'cat > largefile'
or
ssh remotehost 'cat > largefile' < largefile
-logu
