Sftp is too slow to download data, is there any other way to transfer data from UNIX box to another securely?.

I'm just starting to look at secure shell. It might do the trick. Take a look at www.ssh.com

Hi,

Since you are using sftp, you already have ssh installed since sftp (alike scp) uses ssh at the backend.

Try increasing the buffer size:

-b buffer_size

Since the default is only 32 kbytes, you can increase this to a larger value.

Hope this helps. Regards.
