- I have a fairly good question, that I believe will sparc some
- conversation...
-
- I have two Sun IPC's. One in Kuwait and the other in Tennessee. (Please
- note, this is not some make believe setup, it actually exists). I need
- to transfer some data files between the two machines...and I'd like to
- do it once a week.
-
- Due to security reasons, we prefer to not have these machines on any
- major network (i.e., internet).
-
- What is going to be the best (putting into consideration cost, time, and
- dependability) way to connect these two machines?
-
- I am presently looking at a UUCP connection simply because I don't know
- of any other feasible method.
