Recently, I found out that you can run tar over ssh to transfer a complete
directory structure from one machine to another using ssh.
I dont think ssh -r will copy sub-directories etc...
tar cvf - dir/ | ssh
user@other.server.com "cat > dir.tar" does a great
job of replicating the directory structure completely onto the remote
machine...
