X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 28 Jan 2004 21:31:25 -0000 Pardon the off topic question, but one of the things I like about this list is the varied skill set everyone has! I need to upload large files via HTTP throught a proxy server. These files can be multiple GB in size. I realize FTP or SCP would be superior - but the proxy server does not permit those protocols, and I don't control the proxy server. It is possible (in fact gotomypc does it somehow in their product). Most upload scripts load the entire upload into memory - clearly this is not suitable. Thoughts? Paul
