Good day to all. I am using ssh (winSCP) to transfer some files from a server to my workstation.

The problem is that at some files I get disconnected. Always same files. I am the owner of the directory so I guess the file permissions is not a problem. (Also I set the permissions to 777). Is there a size limit or something like that?

Thank you for your time.

Protocol is SFTP, server is 32bit machine. Files are 100MB tops.

Added:

Worked with filezilla using ftp. This temporarily fix the problem but is not exactly a solution since maybe next time I won't have root access to create a ftp account
