I was trying to do "rsync -a root@machine2:/somedirectory ."

There are multiple directories under the tree and yes many files.

also tried "scp -r root@machine2:/somedirectory ." with the same result of too many files.

How many files are in the directory here? I've never run across this
sort of thing acting on the directory and not the files themselves.


Nor have I, and I have copied entire machines over rsync.
Maybe an -av will give more detail.
