In all cases I am reading the file from the remote site to the local site. The
source file is on the remote SunOS 5.6 machine. I tried to scp it with cygwin
six times -- all stalled. I then went to the Linux box and tried the identical
scp command six times and all six worked.
It should be noted that I access the file in question on the Sun box via a
symbolic link on that machine. I don't know if it matters but...
