I am trying to download from a remote server ( in UK I am in the USA) a large file using SFTP (50GB)
It starts but (maybe 10% done) it abandons it and says "too large"
Is there another way to get it?
I am unable to untag the file on the remote server (space limitations)
Even transferring the files one at a time into a local folder without actually OPENING the TAR file would be fine too.
I have tried RSYNC too and that does not work either.
Thank you
offtopic. not a programming question. but did you try gzip -9'ing it? – None – 2012-12-04T14:54:33.133
1What OS are you using? What filesystem are you trying to save the file to? Does it (the file system) have a size limit? – terdon – 2012-12-04T15:23:04.853
I really dislike reading "does not work" in a question. In regard to rsync, because it does work! If it "doesn't" then the issue lies elsewhere, like the host not allowing log-in shells and arbitrary commands. – Ярослав Рахматуллин – 2012-12-04T21:52:36.760
