    Copy 84000 files to other server

    Hi,

    I have a list of about 84,000 files that I need to copy from one server to another.

    I have a text file with the list, I tried to to ftp -s:filename but to no avail as it appears the Debian ftp program does not support -s option.
    Here is what I was trying to do:

    user_id
    password
    binary
    cd /data/files

    put file1.bin
    put file2.bin
    put file3.bin

    Would RCP be the best way? if so what commands and options should I be using?

    Regards
    Paul
