Your question is a little vague, you could copy the files using NFS, RCP, SCP, FTP, UUCP, And I'm sure numerous other network protocols, plus you wouldn't want to forget, Tape, CD-R, Zip, and Floppy. I'd pick NFS. on the old server edit the exports file to share the files you want to copy. on linux it's located at /etc/exports solaris might have it someplace else. on the new server NFS mount the old server mount oldserver:/sharename /mnt/floppy then copy your files cp -R /mnt/floppy/files/* /destination/location/for/files/ plus look at the options for Copy, there is an Archive option I beleive that will keep the permissions and the dates the same, if that kind of thing floats your boat.
