Slightly off topic, but socat and lzop are my favorite utilities for shuttling data around a local network at high speed.
Backing up a disk:
alice$ pv /dev/sda | lzop | socat - tcp:bob:1234
bob$ socat tcp-listen:1234 - > alice.sda.lzo
Copying a bunch of files:
alice$ tar c dir | lzop | socat - tcp:bob:1234
bob$ socat tcp-listen:1234 - | lzop -d | pv | tar x
- dbolgheroni 6y agoDo you consider you're on a secure network?
