server to server directory transfer

[Akendo]

ftp either rsync are not the problem, i guess it will be more the connection. ftp may inefficiency but it's working. But i depends how much bandwidth your getting between the two Host provider.

But good luck with that.

my connection is 20 dl and 2 ul I would think that the bandwith between godaddy and 1and1 would be much much higher.

Is linux so hard that no one knows how to get these two sites talking to each other? Is there a better way to transfer the data than rsnyc?

20 what? b? Please try to more in details, it's very hard to reply to this.

rsync i quite the best for that job. Read a bit here about it. What real is great for you is the -z option for compression.

But take a look about the doc, read the man page!

From the top.

I want to transfer my files from 1and1.com to godaddy.com 1and1 has rsnyc but godaddy only has it as a perl script. Also godaddy uses bash. I am nofamiliarre with either. I really do not want to dl (download) all the files to my computer @ 20 mbits And then ul (upload) them @ 2mbits I have close to a tera of data to move.

I am have oldman brain lock trying to find the right combination of commands to get this job done.

Thankyou for helping an old man. I got all of it dl (downloaded) to my computer. And have begain ul(uploading) the files to godaddy server. I am ul(uploading) the important files first. And will deal with the others in a priority fastion.

I just wish that we could have gotten rsnyc to work. I would think a lot of peple would beifit from it.

Give this a bash? .... is your target user at server
find . | tar cf - | ssh .... "cd somedir && tar xf -"

you can use scp

you can use scp

scp doesn't preserve directory structure.
