Copying Files

Hi,

I understand that to copy files across server, the feasible way will be using scp command. Am I right?

What if the two servers are not connected to a network? If by using a cross cable to link up both the server, what will be the best (fastest) way to copy files across? scp as well?

Thanks.

nfs is the fastest option...

nfs will be used to mount filesyetm remotely. Its not reaally BEST to copy files.. I believe scp is still the best and fastest method for whatever implementations

please try to copy a big file (let's say 1gb) via nfs and scp. i KNOW nfs is faster. and you don't need to mount nfs shares... solaris uses the /net directory for the nfs automount implemantation.
