It depends on what you have at each end. Things I have used:
1) Export everything using NFS. Remote mount & copy. Files readable
only by root might be problematic.
2) Use ssh to run tar or cpio at the remote end. Your server may not
let you do this as root, in which case some files might be unreadable.
3) Create a tar or cpio archive on the remote machine. Grab it using
ftp or sftp. (This requires lots of disk space, and a bit of care that
you don't copy the archive into itself.)
4) rcp
