It's a machine running on Amazon's AWS some ordered only this year. But our IT has ordered RHEL 7, which is quite old.

But when it is an openssh implementation why do you need to distinct ssh and sshx?

I'll have a look and report the results next week. Dieter PS: I lately copied some 250 images from a remote (Linux) server to my local machine (Linux). The files ranged from 1 MB to 60 MB. After a certain size (I think around 10 MB) Tramp is asking if one really wants to copy such a large file. Is there a custom variable to avoid such queries? Or couldn't you implement these nifty questions like ""yes [y], no [n], yes to all [!]"? Otherwise one has to wait for the whole series to confirm the copying of individual files... -- Best wishes H.
