Re: Any cygwin builds with the HPN-SSH patch?

I'm interested in the same solution, i.e., is there a way to move big files via ssh? sftp and scp are much slower than plain ftp due to the encryption involved (ftp is already slow without the encryption involved for ssh). Does anyone have a solution for moving large files using encryption such as going through SSH with decent speed?

Thanks.

Subject: Any cygwin builds with the HPN-SSH patch?


Slashdot just ratcheted up the visibility of the HPN-SSH patch which is
sorely needed as SCP/SFTP on WIndows using the SSHWindows port is REALLY
slow-- a 1G file transfer over a 1G network using FTP is taking about 1:12
and an SFTP of same is taking 12:35, and SCP 10:50.  We can't use it as is,
we're trying to do the ETL for a data warehouse product that is taking most
of the night as it is, and multiplying the transfer time x10 to go from FTP
to SFTP just won't cut it.  I spotted some sites with info on using an ssh
tunnel with netcat for transfers so that I can try blowfish or AES to
squeeze a little more out of it, but I have a feeling it won't be enough.

Any chance anyone is working on a build of SSHWindows that includes the
HPN-SSH patch?  http://www.psc.edu/networking/projects/hpn-ssh/

The SSHWindows packaging is real convenient, but since the last news on it
is from 2004 it's looking kinda dead...
