Hi Dan,
I also tried the i386 RHEL3U5 vmx guest on top of FC4 x86_64 dom0 host,
and I am not seeing any issues with scp from dom0 to vmx guest. Ther
guest kernel now is 2.4 and the data rate I am getting is 3.0MBps now.
I am trying it on SMP system, but the dom0 is still UP. How about
your dom0?
Thanks & Regards,
Nitin
