Re: sending large amount of data securely

Hello,
I've got two freebsd6 boxes on one i have a large collection of files, like about 3.5 gb worth, that i want to send securely to the other box. I've tried:

scp -24Cpr

to do it, it transfered 1gb of data then quit. I'm suspecting it didn't get the sym links if any in this data. Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks.
Dave.


Some options are to tar then scp, or to use rsync+ssh. I've transfered 6gb tar backups via scp in the past with no problems.

HTH,
Micah
