What operating system are you using?? I dont know much about other operating systems except for Linux and little knowledge of solaris
anyway, I would suggest you use the tar method I showed you earlier. When you have already backed up the wanted files to a file, then you simply do this:
type: gzip (the file containing the wanted files)
type: ls
look for the file name you just gzipped and it should have a .gz attached to it
through ftp, log onto the server and go to the specific directory or place you want to transfer the file onto.
type: put (name of the gzipped file that has .gz attached to it)
that should do it
and by the way, using tar will certainly work with gzip and also, I hope you know your way around the ftp system cause that sure would help you deliver the file safely to where you want it delivered. are you familiar with the ftp commands??? if not, when you type ftp at the command prompt, you get a prompt that looks like this ftp>
now, you can type help at the ftp prompt and that will help you with the commands you need to accomplish what you want
ftp> help

_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
The package vfs provides not only the means to implement a virtual filesystem at the tcl level, but also a number of ready to be used
filesystems as well.
Each of these filesystem exists as its own package, and can be accessed through package require vfs::NAME. The whole set of these virtual
filesystems is known informally as 'vfslib'.
SUPPORTED VFS TYPES
Currently supported are ftp, tar, http, zip, mk4, ns, and webdav. In addition there is the ability to mount any 'urltype' as a new direc-
tory, provided an appropriate vfs is supported. This means that you can treat urls based on the schemes ftp://, http:// and file:// as
files. To do this, simply evaluate the command vfs::urltype::Mount ftp for example. Any access inside the new volume will result in an
attempt to require a package through package require vfs::${type}, which must therefore exist, or errors will be thrown. If a filesystem
is loaded, use the associated command listed below to mount a source for that filesystem as a tcl directory.
vfs::zip::Mount path to
Mount the zip file path as directory to.
vfs::mk4::Mount path to
Mount the metakit database file file path as directory to.
vfs::tar::Mount path to
Mount the tar file path as directory to.
vfs::ftp::Mount path to
Mount the ftp url path as directory to.
vfs::ns::Mount path to
Mount the tcl namespace path as directory to.
vfs::webdav::Mount path to
Mount the webdav url path as directory to.
vfs::http::Mount path to
Mount the http url path as directory to.
vfs::urltype::Mount path to
Mount the url path, of type urltype as directory to.
LIMITATIONS
Most of the vfs types listed above have not been very well debugged as yet. Please test them!
