The problem is, if I'm moving a huge directory/file, and the transfer fails, there is absolutely no way to continue where I left off. This is awfully primitive. The only way I can think of is to zssh into my own localhost and use rz/sz, or the same via ftp, but this seems like a pathetic kludge, and even those dont work very well with large directories full of files.
