backup/ftp

[netbeats <netbeats@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi!!

I have two Linux m/c and one is running short of disk space. I want to ftp
all files from a user account in m/c 1 to user account in m/c 2. 

I want to maintain all the permission, directory structure ... etc
I dont even have enough space to tar/gzip and then ftp to second
m/c and then extract the directories/files.

Some ftp sites allow gzip on the fly how do i do that? Can i do tar and
gzip on the fly when I use ftp and then extract the directory and files on
m/c 2?
