Or just try scp, since you likely are already running ssh on one server. 


for example

scp file username at remotehost:file

just replace filename, username, and remotehost name.




If I don't aleady have a large file,  I usually create one to test speeds. 

something like..

dd if=/dev/urandom of=file bs=1000 count=1000

This will make an ~1gb file of pseudo-random stuff. 

Oh, and if you make a file, remember to delete it from both sides.
