If you are doing this over a LAN, then rsync will suffice. rsync will preserve permissions with the -p option.
Even better, use '-a', that will make sure that everything is exactly the same and implies -r. If both are available on one machine (NFS, hard drive plugged in, etc): rsync -a /directory_on_a /directory_on_b If not: rsync -e ssh -a /directory_on_a user@hostname_of_b:/directory_on_b You can also use unison, which has a nice GUI interface that lets you have better control over what gets copied.
