I'm having a curious problem communicating with a remote site of mine.
I can access the site with "ssh -Y alfred-vpn" without any problem.
But then any command, eg cat, vim, tail, 
that gives more than a minimal response,
causes the connection to hang, that is, to cease accepting any input,
and I see no way to revive the connection
except to kill the sshd entry from another ssh connection to the site,
or else just to close the local window.

For example, "sudo tail -9 /var/log/messages" works,
but not if I replace 9 with 20.

It seems to me that there has been some corruption at the remote site -
there may well have been a power-outage or something like that.
I've tried re-installing several packages, eg coreutils, sendmail .
I've also tried re-starting all the services that might be involved,
eg openvpn, network, shorewall.

Any advice or suggestions gratefully received.
