Well, so far I can 'ls' as much as I want now!! Let's hope that this
resolves the problem and I can issue more than 2 commands before needing
start a new SSH session. :-)

Jay, you're a god!!

Cheers!!

TCP window scaling issue?  On the Fedora box, execute

sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_window_scaling=0

and see if your connection works better.
