Copy/move files between Windows and FreeBSD
Hi, I need to copy,move and delete files across two machines. They are located far away from each other. I have other FreeBSD machines and we were using SSH2 for this kind of task. Under windows, I could not find the right software. This is an automated task, and it is not complicated: copy/move all files from one computer to another. I was using putty and plink/pscp but it is not reliable. I could not start them from a win32 service. I could run them from a scheduled program but sometimes they freeze and then I have to kill and restart the whole thing. I'm looking for a more reliable tool that can do SCP in batch mode. Do you have any suggestions?

Re: Copy/move files between Windows and FreeBSD
Hi Laszlo, I use Unison to run automated file copying (synchronization) from Windows servers to FreeBSD. This program might work for you. It is open source and cross-platform. It is also in the ports collection. Perhaps it will work for you.

Since I was using pscp, it will be the less pain to use scp from openssh for windows. I hope it will work.

Cygwin also seems to include rsync; running that over ssh will be a lot easier in the long run. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Copy/move files between Windows and FreeBSD
Hello Laszlo, Going off on a tangent here, may I suggest that you try rsync (FreeBSD) with cwRsync (Windows) for this? It can use ssh and be fully automated. You will need rsync as client on both machines and to create the appropriate keys on respective machines. Rsync is in ports and cwRsync is at http://itefix.no/cwrsync/ . Good luck!
