Showing progress bar while using SFTP
Hey friends,
Daily I use "sftp" utility to upload some or the other stuff to my FTP server. Sometimes the size of the data that I upload is too large and I have to wait & wait & wait... Is there a way I can make "sftp" display some progress bar or % (percentage) completion bar which will let me know the data transfer status? I am seeing "sftp" man page but couldn't get much info. |
This is a shot in the dark, and it may be way wrong, but i beleive the -v may show a bar. I believe it does when untaring a file, but I am not sure if it can be used in your case. I use a -zxvf when I untar. Again I may be completely wrong too.

you could try using the command hash or progress prior to transferring your file..

If it matches your requirements, you can try scp instead. It shows a progress bar by default.

"progress" did the trick...thanks to all...
