Ahhh yes.. I completely forgot about this. I've messed around with rsync long ago.
It worked reliably and supported ssh.
Shouldn't be all that tough to install rsync on the remote system if they don't
already have it. I'd recommend it.

It's good software, and so is the ncftpd server. Unfortunately, the
latter isn't open source, but it's free for personal use.
Hmmm... Just tried it with sftp and no can do.
Returns an error stating that it cannot download/upload a directory.
Only thing then would be to tar/gzip then sftp the file or scp with the
-r option.
I'll have to check out ncftp. I heard it was a good product. Just
didn't realize how good :-

Except that, as far as I can tell, sftp doesn't do
ncftp IS ftp. Comparing it to scp doesn't make sense.
Why not use sftp instead? You are not required to input the path and
it's very much like what you are doing now. I like openssh personally.
I believe it comes with RedHat 7.x

It can be, but it's usually better than having the resource which would
otherwise require a password left unprotected.

Hi all,
someone told me it was a *very* bad idea to have passwords sitting in
text files on my machine.
Okay, I can see that, I'm the root user though and I'd like to have a
little script to connect via ncftp to my remote server. (complete with
