G'day,

I'd appreciate somebody pointing me where to look for info on how to copy files from a home directory on one machine to a directory on another machine via network.

I've got about 100GB of data I need to copy from my desktop running ubuntu 9.04 on to a laptop running Debian Squeeze which are both at my home.

I'm not even sure how to word it in just a few words so I can google it.

Thanking you all in advance.


rsync can do it, and you can interrupt transfers and continue later if
necessary. It also preserves permissions, ownership, etc.


Thanks a lot!

I'll give it a try.
