Yeah, this helps a bit, Dirk!

...... /* still printing similar lines as the above */
=============================================================
This time, the password authentication has passed. But the remote file transferred is still 16KB. The curl transfer lines outputted in the above seems very strange. How come the numbers are all negative?

Besides the flag -v, any more means to debug?

Thanks a lot,
Xu Qiang
