I am tunneling an nc connection to my target host (example.com) over an ssh connection to my gateway. Below is my .ssh/config setup for this connection:
Host target
Hostname example.com
HostKeyAlias target
ProxyCommand ssh me@gateway /bin/nc example.com 22
This is great and allows me to ssh to the target host in one step. What I would like to do is be able to tunnel an NX or VNC session over this connection.
Anyone know how this might be done?
I'm trying to rsync a 15 GB file from my OSX box to a box running Ubuntu 10.04 server. rsync is transferring ~300-700Mb and then closing the connection with the following error:
Read from remote host my.host.name: Connection reset by peer
rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 4 bytes [sender]: Broken pipe (32)
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (397214 bytes received so far) [sender]
rsync error: unexplained error (code 255) at /SourceCache/rsync/rsync-40/rsync/io.c(452) [sender=2.6.9]
The exact command I am executing is:
rsync --progress --archive --inplace my.15GB.file.tgz my.host.name:~/
I am sure that there is enough free space on the Ubuntu box. Any ideas what could be causing the connection to drop?
