If you have Linux and shell access then, (or get the current hosts to) tar
zip the thing. Tar retains file permissions and ownership which will come in
useful if there are any scripts...
tar cvzf myfile.tar.gz webfolder
where "webfolder" is the name of the folder that contains the web site, it
may be web, www, htdocs, docs, etc...
Then on your server upload the file somewhere and
tar xvzf mayfile.tar.gz /path/to/clients/webfolder/
You may need to run as root on your system for the ownership permissions to
remain intact...
kind regards,
Liam
