You've got [FedoraBox]-----[VPNhw]----- // ----------[VPNhw][Otherbox] and you are doing a cp across them with a VPN in place. Given cp isn't network aware I assume you have a network file system mount of some kind between the two boxes ? If so you want to mount the NFS mount with the "soft" option, which tells it that failing and timing out is ok. More efficient in general might be to use rsync and scp instead, but that depends on the application. Certainly for local/remote synching and backup rsync/scp is more efficient.
