Thanks, that solves the problem. With 1Gb of free space on partition and files over 1,5Gb buffering doesn't work. I'm not an expert on computers and sshfs is something I haven't used before. I cannot figure out how to change the IPtables and get to work. Installed Guarddog and turned off the firewall but it didn't fix problem of not being able to use ssh the other way.
