I personally use rsync over ssh. The exact command I use looks as follows rsync -e ssh -avz path/of/the/file [EMAIL PROTECTED]:path/of/the/file I find this much useful over scp, sftp, gftp, ftp, konqueror (vertical split and using sftp protocol). But I suggest you to try each and pick whichever suits you best. raju -- Kamaraju S Kusumanchi Cornell University http://people.cornell.edu/pages/kk288/ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flumech/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
