Hi,

Certainly you know about 'rsync'?  Would this help here?  
Let me quote a small section from the 'rsync' man page:

"""    To synchronize my samba source trees I use  the  following
       Makefile targets:

              get:
              	rsync -avuzb --exclude ī*~ī samba:samba/ .

              put:
              	rsync -Cavuzb . samba:samba/

              sync: get put

       this  allows  me to sync with a CVS directory at the other
       end of the link. I then do cvs operations  on  the  remote
       machine,  which saves a lot of time as the remote cvs pro­
       tocol isnīt very efficient.  """

I can't access CVS because of our restrictive HTTP/UUCP only firewall, 
but in our company we use 'rsync' a lot.
