ftp vs ssh
the secure issue is not import in my case , as the data is not important , please ignore the security issure .
What I want to concern is the accurate and easy to manage / control , the ftp seems not easy to write a script to check the accurancy , but ssh can use chksum to check the accurancy of data , as the network between these servers is not stable , sometimes the files is missing to transfer to remote server , so I have to write script to check the accurancy , any transfer method is no problem for me , what one method is better for me ? thx

Re: ftp vs ssh
ftp
sftp (secure ftp)
ssh
scp (secure copy)
NFS mounted filesystem
rsync
there are probably others as well, the list above is just off the top of my head. No one solution is "best", as it depends on what you are trying to address.
The nice thing about the rsync solution is that you can configure it to only transmit the changes.
lack of a stable network complicates things. If its part of a LAN or WAN, that problem should probably be corrected first.
Note that there are other considerations, such as the O/S on the sending and receiving ends.
If one is UNIX and the other Windows, AND you are sending text files, then some of the above methods will to the correct end of line conversions while the data is "in-flight", others won't. This causes issues with checksumming the files to determine if they were correctly transferred.

Re: ftp vs ssh
You can read about the capabilities of this software here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NDM
I am not a big fan of Wikipedia articles but this one is pretty accurate as far as I can see.
HTH
UNIX because I majored in cryptology...

Re: ftp vs ssh
Then there's the cost of purchasing and maintenance.
Of course, a better description of what the OP wants to do (like keep the local & remote directories sync'd, send every file found in /dir from serverA to serverB, or ???) would be useful as well.
