Re: scp and unknown upload length

I did try setting a large size and it did seem to work to upload a shorter file. But I want to ensure I'm not setting myself up for future failure, so was looking for a definitive answer.
Thanks
Mark

However, not all of our upload targets enable ftp service, so I'd prefer to use scp:. Is is possible to upload a file of unknown length with the scp: service? If I set CURLOPT_INFILESIZE to some large value and transfer less than that, will things work out okay?
