Hi!

You could use scp instead of sftp. Actually I don't really know what sftp is 
good for. Maybe someone can clear me up!

You could also use rsync with the option -e ssh if you want just to syncronize 
files.

Hey list,

I was wondering what the alternatives were to something like sftp?  I have
two servers that need to send files (approx. 10mb) to each other a couple
of times a day and I wanted to know what other options I had to do it
securely. Is there anything else out there besides sftp and pgp for
something like this?

Thanks
john
