Even though it was a pain in the *ss, I broke up the transfer into
several chunks (logically organized by sub-directories of the source)
and wrote a script to batch the job. It worked, better and faster than
via NFS. Mounting the source directory via NFS is not a solution that
makes one feel good - it ended up with errors.

UNIX is user friendly, it's just picky about who its friends are.
