TransferBroker.sh (GPL)

Are you looking for a way to transfer files from host A to host B without actually being on either host? Say you are on host C?

TransferBroker.sh is a Bourne Shell script that lets you transfer files between two remote hosts, without needing to be on either host. The syntax for using TransferBroker.sh is very similar to rsync and scp, so the learning curve is greatly reduced. It also takes advantage of the rsync efficiency, so files that are the same on the two remote hosts are not transfered; only the differences between files are transferred.

TransferBroker.sh takes advantage of the GetTempDirPath.ksh (GPL) Korn shell script, which is also available on this site. So to use this script, you will need to download the GetTempDirPath.ksh script if you don't already have it.

TransferBroker.sh is distributed as executable source code under the GNU General Public License. Please see the license agreement elsewhere on this site.

Usage

  Usage:   TransferBroker.sh "[USER@]HOST:SRC" "[USER@]HOST:DEST"
    or     TransferBroker.sh "rsync://[USER@]HOST[:PORT]/SRC" "rsync://[USER@]HOST[:PORT]/DEST"
