Hi all, I would like to copy a huge file from one server to another. but because it takes a long time, I would like to exit my remote shell that I used to login and run the scp command.
I have tried with the " & " symbol after the command but no go. ex. scp /home/user/file.txt bigserver:/home/user2/ & Is there any way to do this without generating a new passwordless ssh key and using the " -i " option with scp? I could do it this way, but it takes me too long to create all the keys and edit the authorized_keys file all the time. Thanks for your help!! Mike
