I you use cpio, symbolic links and empty dirs can be copied. Strangely, as I recall, sometimes cp -r and rcp -r use cpio, and cp -rp says it will preserve links. Breaking the compression out from the ssh2 allows more CPUs to be utilized pipeline parallel.
Hi DGPickett,
I have tried the code but didnt work, actually ssh part does not work, i had a different error when i tried ssh (rather than ssh2 as its not supported)

"filename" Too many levels of symbolic links
There is only one symbolic link to one file in this case, but there are >2000 other links to... (2 Replies)

I am linking a directory as follows:
ln -sf /home/xxx/userid/real_files/* /home/xxx/userid/linked_files
This gives me symbolic links for all the files in the real_files directory in the linked_files directory. My question is, if I go and remove a file in the real_files directory and then go... (1 Reply)
I need to copy a directory from a production system to a test system on the same Aix server. However I need to ensure that the soft links are preserved as part of the copy ( therefore I guess the cp command is not the way to go )
What command can I use in Aix to achieve this copy ?
thanks in... (2 Replies)
Hi Guys...
I want to create a link using ln -s for a directory that does not exist on the box.
How do I do that?
I had some files from Box A directory /d1/u01 and I copied the files across to another Box lets say Box B on directory /d2/u02.
Now I want a link so that this path /d1/u01... (2 Replies)
Hi all,
I have scoured the entire forum for this but to no avail unfortunately. Basically, I would like to remove my symbolic link from my folder name i.e.
foldername -> /a/b/c/d/f
where f is indeed a folder. I have tried rmdir but this does not work and in actual fact deletes the... (4 Replies)
Hi,
I have a file with more than 1 layers of soft links for it. For ex.

SSH2_PUBLICKEY_ADD(3) 1 SSH2_PUBLICKEY_ADD(3)ssh2_publickey_add - Add an authorized publickeySYNOPSIS
bool ssh2_publickey_add (resource $pkey, string $algoname, string $blob, [bool $overwrite = false], [array $attributes])
DESCRIPTION
Note
The public key subsystem is used for managing public keys on a server to which the client is already authenticated. To authenticate
to a remote system using public key authentication, use the ssh2_auth_pubkey_file(3) function instead.
PARAMETERS
o $pkey
- Publickey Subsystem resource created by ssh2_publickey_init(3).
o $algoname
- Publickey algorithm (e.g.): ssh-dss, ssh-rsa
o $blob
- Publickey blob as raw binary data
o $overwrite
- If the specified key already exists, should it be overwritten?
o $attributes
- Associative array of attributes to assign to this public key. Refer to ietf-secsh-publickey-subsystem for a list of supported
attributes. To mark an attribute as mandatory, precede its name with an asterisk. If the server is unable to support an attribute
marked mandatory, it will abort the add process.
RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
Adding a publickey with ssh2_publickey_add(3)
<?php
$ssh2 = ssh2_connect('shell.example.com', 22);
ssh2_auth_password($ssh2, 'jdoe', 'password');
$pkey = ssh2_publickey_init($ssh2);
$keyblob = base64_decode('
