Does anyone know any tricks to move over a 4.5 gb file from local pc to virtual server?? I am working on the last hairs of my head, and I would like to keep them.

scp? cifs? smb? bittorent? irc dcc? what have you tried? Why haven't they worked? – sarnold Dec 18 '11 at 22:51
A local virtual server, or a remote one? On a machine you have physical access to (if so, how far away? What's the bandwidth between them?) As long as the link is ~100KB/s, you might as well scp it, it's unlikely you'll get a better answer before it's done. – Kevin Dec 18 '11 at 22:56
Whichever approach I started with, I would ensure it had resume support :) – pst Dec 18 '11 at 23:18

a) Map the virtual server as a network drive (like: \\192.168.0.1\C$) in Windows Explorer, and do a standard copy.

b) I usually manage my virtual hosts via Remote Desktop, if you're using the recent remote desktop client, you can Ctrl+C -> Ctrl+V any files and easily copy from one location to another. (Warning, it may lock your desktop with a sticky copy dialog).

c) some of them also supports drag'n'drop. d) samba e) ftp server f) http server

in case the machine and virtual server are in other subnets use port forwarding
