How to copy directory from a unix host to a linux host.
Hi there, i need to copy a directory from one host to another.

On the unix host the directory i want is here
on host hos14
/local/biosciences/miller/feed/cattle

can anyone tell me how i tell my linux host to copy that directory over?
i presume it would be the same as if i was copying betwenn 2 unix hosts but i don't know how to do that either

scp or NFS. Or tar it on the source, put it in an http-accessible dir, and get it by http.

nota:
a way between satyap and philthey
if you have permissios to do it, mount (nfs) and cp or tar from to
if not: cd xx/xx/xx ; tar cfv zzz . | ssh host tar xfv -
don't forget, if target is absolute, you get probls
