No, that's correct. Brief table:
\ called from
transferring \ here there
files +-------------------------------
in | OK fails remote, works local
out | ? OK
Worse, for the "called from there" column, I used either pscp or WinSCP,
both of which run in XP. (I don't have access to a *ix box remotely.)
So it could be a fault in those, or XP's network stack. That's why I'm
looking for a fault in Linux first -- it's easier to fix. Also, for "there"
I went through the router; I don't know how much difference that makes.

SSH does work, but that's what I thought. That or something USF's doing.

I don't normally have problems with SSH -- I have my router forward port
22(/TCP?) to this machine, then I connect remotely to port 22 at the
router's IP address, which has a DDNS name attached to it (the router
notifies no-ip.com to update the DDNS name).
