Ditto Joe's response - we feel that ftp is infinitely more reliable
than DSCOPY ... and faster, too!

If FTP were as reliable as DSCOPY, I'd use FTP, but FTP on the WAN is a
"cross your fingers and pray" situation.

John,
 
I've never had any luck dealing with HFS and DSCOPY - I've always used FTP.  As
a matter of fact, we do more FTP now than DSCOPY over the WAN...and not had
any problems unless the remote machine was down...which I think, has happened
once in the last eight months...
 
When you say "cross your fingers and pray situation" - what's happening?
