<p>Depending on what the content is, you might also consider an rsync server so you only have to transmit deltas.</p>

For sharing large files I'd look at<br>
* zsync<br>
* bittorrent<br>
* "Direct connect protocol"<br>
or<br>
* any binary packager that is commonly used on usenet for splitting and<br>
recombining large files with par2 parity data<br>
<br>
Whatever you use, make certain is has auto-restart capabilities.<br>
<br>
On a LAN, this isn't nearly as important, but without knowing how many clients,<br>
how many servers and the total number of big files to be transfered per second,<br>
it is hard to recommend anything as a solution.<br>
