Hi all, To copy data from one server, I normally (always) use scp. I'm looking for a method to perform this copy task without the overhead of encryption for infrequent, high-volume transfers (hundreds to thousands of GB). The data will be transferred server-to-server within a private datacentre. Can someone recommend a *known good* production quality copy mechanism that will act like scp, but without the overhead? rsh? nc? I recall a thread not too long ago regarding this, but I'd like to have a simple working example if possible, without getting into detail why one shouldn't transfer data unencrypted. Steve
