I would like to see transfer rates when I use 'cp'. At home I have a FreeBSD server with a couple harddiscs in them. I work on my laptop and mount the discs from the server using NFS. But when copying files from server to laptop or vice versa I have no idea how long it will take before it is finished. Is there a way to show those speeds ? I also checked with scp but when mounted it kind of act like 'cp' and doesn't show anything Thanks in advance -- -Frank Staals
