If there is an ssh server running on the destination machine, there is an easier way. Let's say you wanted to copy /home on the source machine into /backup on the destination machine. For this example we'll assume the IP address of the destination machine is 192.168.0.100 (you'll want to substitute the real IP address). You can copy the files with this command on the source machine: tar -C /home -c . | ssh [email protected] "(cd /backup; tar x)" -- Byron Clark /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
