I've just remembered that the server updates itself weekly, so a power
outage could have rebooted it into a newer kernel (apologies for not
mentioning this earlier, but I built it last summer and forgot all
about it until it failed to work).

 However, I've tried scp with all four of the installed kernels
(2.6.15-23, -26, -27 and -28) with no luck. I have all of the Aptitude
update logs and there are no references to rsync or scp. There is a ssh
update, but it's from October of last year and this was working until
January.

How do I find which libraries are used by both rsync and scp?
