I have two machines in my loft (a FreeBSD server and a Win2k box) 
connected via CAT5 crossover cable.

I connect to the FreeBSD machine via SSH, and use secure file transfer 
to upload/download from the machine.

In the last week, the FreeBSD machine has dropped my connection on 3 
seperate occasions.  I'll queue up some work and leave the machine 
unattended, only to return at a later time and find that the connection 
has been closed.

No one else has physical access to the area when this occurs; can anyone 
tell me what's going on or what I need to do in order to keep from being 
disconnected in the future?

Unfortunately the file transfer client portion of SSH Secure Shell is 
very poor at resuming queued work, so this is starting to cause me an 
inconvinience.
