+### Please describe the problem.
+
+I get an error in one of my repositories. 
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+I paired my macbook repository with an repository on my desktop. The repository on the desktop contains many smaller files, because it is my documents folder.
+
+Pairing this repository with smaller files never worked for me. I posted to the forum about it:
+[[forum/ssh__95__exchange__95__identification:_read:_Connection_reset_by_peer/]]
+
+I am a little confused because I paired three other repositories between these computers sucessfully. They contain pictures, videos and music.
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+
+Version: 5.20140106-gcb3351b
+Build flags: Assistant Webapp Pairing Testsuite S3 WebDAV FsEvents XMPP DNS Feeds Quvi TDFA CryptoHash 
+
+Mac OS X Mavericks
+
+### Please provide any additional information below.
