    Use rsync. We do the same type of thing with 90 servers replicating off of one source. Works great.

    A crucial point I omitted:

    While the name of the top level directory is known and will not change, the contents of sub-directories, indeed the names of the files in those subdirectories can change. In any case, they are too numerous to enunciate one at a time.

      I need to copy the contents of a directory, including sub-directories, and all files contained in those directories from machine A to machine B over the network, in a recurring fashion, say once every 24 hours.

      The file types include binaries and text files.

      I'd like to maintain the permissions of the files as they exist in machine A.

      Any tips, suggested commands, etc would be greatly appreciated.

      thanks
