The &quot;rsync&quot; is the right tool to use, the trick is that you need to copy the date from your souce server, in your case use tape or CD, transfer the files to your target server, then run rsync to<br />
sync the 2 dirs.<br />
<br />
the options to use for rsync:<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;/usr/local/bin/rsync --delete -az .........<br />

Rsync is the right tool for the job; however, I would suggest tunneling it over ssh. Something similar to the following:<br />
<br />
rsync somdir/ -ave ssh remoteserver:/remotedir<br />
<br />
Hope this helps.<br />
