I fear that neither Derick nor I assisted you to any degree of accuracy, my 
feeding off of Derick's initial response moreso than your original posting. 
Let's try again --If I understand correctly, you have two machines, one a Mac 
running YDL and Sun box running Solaris. When moving data from the Sun to the 
Mac over scp, you are seeing a time-out.

        Is this correct?

        Can you bypass switches w/a cross over cable?

        Are there any bandwidth limiters in your environment?

        Have you tried rsync instead?

        Are you moving open directories or tar balls?
