Or is it?
I make a .bz2 zip of a directory on a linux VM and then download it to my machine to upload it to another machine. When I upload it (142GB), my FTP software says it has finished but when I check the file size on the new VM it says it is only 8.2GB.
The issue is when I try to unzip it, it fails. I am guessing because it isn't actually uploaded but am not sure. I have tried Cyberduck and Transmit for Mac.
Is there a better way to skin this cat?
