Thread: Remotely move files


i looking type of interface (preferably web server) allow me remotely move files 1 predefined directory list of several other predefined directories within network. renaming files while moving huge bonus. files large (from 1mb 20gb) type of queuing required. originating server ubuntu server , destination windows server. need able provide type of security want available on public web server.

lastly, simple understand significant other can use without needing take computer classes.

suggestions?

thank you.

rsync on ssh. setup ssh-keys trust between different systems. man rsync to learn more.

can use cgi web interface launch script(s) on demand, can't recommend allowing use web interface dynamic inputs. of security risk. setting secure web interface not easy. heck, people make web interfaces manage system have security issues, chance , have correctly?

or can schedule copies happen automatically on schedule want via cron. man crontab learn more.

if dealing media files, then rsync fine. if dealing virtual machine disk images, there better methods more efficient - hint: won't sending entire huge file every time. setup backup method.

easiest way prevent having issues automate stuff. isn't hard. learn little bash scripting. http://tldp.org/ldp/abs/html/ best reference know.
