Hello selfhosted! Sometimes I have to transfer big files or a large amounts of small files in my homelab. I used rsync but specifying the IP address and the folders and everything is bit fiddly. I thought about writing a bash script but before I do that I wanted to ask you about your favourite way to achieve this. Maybe I am missing out on an awesome tool I wasn’t even thinking about.

    WinSCP for editing server config

    Rsync for manual transfers over slow connections

    ZFS send/receive for what it was meant for

    Samba for everything else that involves mounting on clients or other servers.
