Re^3: odd warning from Net::SFTP::Foreign

I am unable to reproduce the problem. Which OS are you using on the target host?

It would also help if you could attach a process monitor (strace, truss, ktrace, etc.) to the remote sftp server process (it is usually called sftp-server) after the ssh connection has been stablished but before the transfer starts and send me the output file.

Unfortunately the host box is a remote box outside of my company's control, with limited access. However, I think you are right that it is in the way the remote host is set up. The same code works fine against other remote hosts, but this one has had more restrictions in place than usual, I cannot ssh there, for example. I will look into getting them to attach a process monitor, but to be honest I don't think they'll play ball. Either way, thanks for the feedback, it sounds like an SSH config issue on the remote side.	[reply]
