cpdtre is a utility for copying a dir tree from a source host to a destination host across a network. It can be executed from a cmd host which is possible neither the source or destination host. This cmd uses tar and preserves symlinks etc. It is a tool which has been used effectively in a variety of environments for over 15 years. However, its successful use may depend on teaking its internals or adjusting your network environment. Execute cpdtre with no args for more details.
