It it fails to copy even tow ot three hours after the last time I tried.

Turn's out it was Tiger vnc's vncviewer. I seem to have fixed it by adding -SendPrimary=0 to all vncviewer calls. I will probably also add the parameter to each server's start up parameters as well. Note that I usually have at least tree remote desktops open at many one time. I will file a bug report on tiger vnc as soon as I am sure this resolves the issue.
