Dear List
I need to collect bulk data files from some remote machines into my local
machine. I will be using a perl script to read about the remote machines
directory listing from where I will get the source data files.The remote
machines' directory listing from where I will get the data files most
probably changes time by time . So now please tell me which one is good
options can be used in this situation SCP or VSFTPD? I need a secure and
fast data transfer.

Thanks & Regards in Advance

I use SCP. About faster or not, it depends on the bandwidth in both
locations and load CPU in each locations.
