Look into "man rsync". Rsync makes tar-ring unnecessary.
It's best to use rsync <http://rsync.samba.org/> through ssh.
rsync -avr --rsh=ssh <source-directory>/
<user@host-in-dmz>/<dest-directory>/
<dest-directory> must exist.
To erase files in destination that don't exist anymore in
source, use the --delete , use it with the -n option first to
see what it will erase.
