I am not sure the rsync --delete is what the OP intended.  rsync --delete
will delete the file on the remote location if it no longer exists in the
source location.  The OP wanted to, as I understood it, delete the file from
the source location after it was copied to the remote location.  Probably
the best bet would to be to have a script scp the files, do some sort of
verification that they made it intact, and then do an ssh [EMAIL 
PROTECTED]"/path/to/file" as suggested earlier.

HTH,

Use "rsync --delete" via SSH.  (Danger!  Slippery when wet!  Use with  
caution.)

How do I delete a file after I've copied it with SCP? Is there some sort of
secure 'rm' command?


ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] 'rm /full/path/to/file'

Should work. There's no srm (secure rm), you simply ssh to the machine
and give it the command to execute.

ssh allows you to execute many commands, one being rm. Example:

ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] "rm /full/path/to/file";

There's also gftp which can use ssh / sftp if you like GUI.
