Yep. sftp sucks. I use scp: scp -r folder [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/newplace the -r means recursive. All attributes (like the executable and permissions bits) seem to be preserved too. You can go the other way too: scp -r [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/foler newplace Use . to represent the current directory when specifying a destination.
