[Sunhelp] "Mirroring" two directories over the net. Info please.

[Keith Campbell]

Tar is still the best way to go unless you have a really deep file system
(long file names.)

The network is the bottleneck.  If you are really concerned with speed, take
the hard disk to the other machine and hook it up directly.
