I suppose it could be related to the XP piping problem, but I only have NT and W2K.  All I can really say is that it never happens (to me, anyway) on NT.  It certainly sounds like what others have described on XP.

The transfer that fails is a "pull" whether I'm using scp (which fails) or the tar-to-tar method (which doesn't).  It kind of has to be that way, too, because I can't be sure that sshd will always be running on the destination end to support a "push" mode of operation.
