I'm in the middle of moving server. I want to transfer just 1 BIG file from one server to another. I need the copy command pls.

This is what I have done.
1) SSH logon to new server.
2) From there FTP old server.
3) GO thru all directory until saw that BIG file.
4) ???

What command i type in order to start downloading the file from the old server to the new server?

Thank you.

i use wget http://ip/filename etc..


Is there a difference in wget and get?

Also does anyone know if there is a wget command to get in ASCII mode?
