if you've got shell, you could just make a tarball, fetch it an delete it.

On old juicy server, sitting outside the directory you want to tar up:

# tar -cvpf juicy.tar directoryname
# gzip juicy.tar

Then move the file somewhere web accessible for a second...

# mv juicy.tar.gz /full/path/to/where/you/want/it


and on the other machine:

# wget http://www.juicylinks.com/juicy.tar.gz


and the new server will fetch the file from the old.


Be sure to delete the file afterward though ;)


Then on your new server put hte file where you want your old directory to appear & type:

# tar -zxvf juicy.tar.gz
