What's a reliable command-line Linux app for SFTP uploading?

0

I have to upload a large number of files via SFTP.

I need a command-line app to do this on Linux CentOS 6.

Yes, I've searched on Google and haven't found any that are reliable. I tried to use scp and sftp but some of the files were corrupted during transfer. I need one that's reliable and is going to ensure that the files are not corrupt.

Any recommendations?

Thanks!

I would probably use rsync, e. g. like this.

5I've never seen scp or sftp corrupting files. The transfer goes over SSH which itself has integrity checking. So the only time the contents can get corrupted without scp/sftp noticing is reading/writing files to/from file system. And if your file systems are broken, nothing can save you. My guess is that your files are being written to, while you are transferring them. – Martin Prikryl – 2013-12-29T09:32:51.617
