Hello All,
I want to know some details/problems that will arise while ftping
morethan 60GB files.

ftp manual page saying that it will support largefiles.
But i want to know what is the best way to ftp (>60Gb) files from
different solaris box.
Thanks in advance..


Thanks,

Can you try scp?  Is it one really big file, or is it built up from a
bunch of smaller files that maybe you could use rsync for?  That way
it'll move as much of it as it can, if you lose session or network or
something, it starts more or less where it left off.

In other words, what are you actually doing?  Is it a big 60GB blob, or
are you making it that way to move it?
