Theoretically any transfer protocol based on TCP should be safe, not just nfs, but smb or wget also. Only possibility to screw things up is latency; like with transatlantic / satellite connections.

Maybe netcat over UDP? :-) _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Dit bericht kan informatie bevatten die niet voor u is bestemd.
