if you have big directory and big files and sub directories, you may use <a href="ftp" rel="ugc">ftp</a>:<br />
<br />
wget -r --ftp-user=username --ftp-password=pass <a href="ftp://servername:/path/to/dir" rel="ugc">ftp://servername:/path/to/dir</a><br />
<br />
if ypu don't have wget you may download from<br />
<br />
sunfreeware.com<br />
<br />
This will use ftp to copy which is faster than scp

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
