I am having a problem with my ssh tunnel hanging when anything higher bandwith (e.g. YouTube) goes over it. I am starting my tunnel as follows: ssh -D7070 user@my.host.name.com This is being run in urxvt on Xorg running under cygwin 1.7 on Windows XP. The problem can be reliably recreated. I start up my tunnel as described. I run firefox configured for SOCKS proxy at port 7070. If I surf normal text based web pages, everything is fine. If I go to a site like youtube, video hangs about 3 seconds in. At the same time, my shell session will hang. If I close the youtube page, everything returns to normal within about 10 seconds. If I leave the page up, it will hang indefinitely. I can do the same thing with a tunnel from PuTTY and everything works fine. This seems to be limited to cygwin's openssh. It also does not seem to be a simple bandwidth issue. I can use scp to copy files from the same box at 2MB/s without issue. It seems to be only data going over the tunnel that hangs things up. I have checked the FAQ and did not see anything similar. I also see nothing like it in the mailing list archive. I am happy to be corrected if I have missed something. cygcheck is attached Thanks for any help you can offer. -- Carl Flippin | Any fool can write code that a computer carlf@photocarl.org | can understand.
