Not mentioned yet:
cd /path/to/root/of/files && tar -cf - . | ssh me@destination 'cd /path/to destination && tar -xvpf -'
or similar with "dump ... | ssh ... restore ..." with either the native
compression of ssh or tar (or no compression at all if the transfered
size doesn't matter).
Bye,
Alexander.
