Even if you 'unbless' the Sys Folder?
Or make a copy on the remote machine of whatever..?
If it is the *active* System Folder (ie, that's the folder on which 
the Mac is booted), then there will be open-locked files in it. 
Unblessing it has nothing to do with closing its files.

If you locally make a copy of the folder first, then you can move 
that copy across the 'net, because none of its files will be open.
