FTP. A Cisco switch was dropping a bit (or two) and managed to shuttled the packet across despite that double bit-loss in its data payload.
Had to swap FTP out with rsync.
Of course, that entailed numerous hours of master network engineer skills of tracking down data loss across several hops.
Weird how we trust the hardware buffer to keep the data intact prior to its packet hardware checksumming.
