Hi Michael,
Take a look at rsync, http://www.rsync.org/, I think you'll find it very useful. I've
been using it for several months now to do software releases to the production boxes
for one of our websites with excellent results.
Here's our production install script:
#!/bin/sh
################################################################################
##
## Filename: prod_install.sh
##
## Author: Damian M. Wiest, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
##
## Usage: sh ./prod_install.sh
##
## Version: $Id: prod_install.sh,v 1.5 2001/10/18 21:38:13 atg Exp $
##
## Purpose:
##
## This script is responsible for executing installations of the foo.com
## project onto the production systems. We use rsync to compare files and
## transfer only the necessary changes.
##
################################################################################
# Define some useful vars.
PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin
OPTS='--checksum --verbose --times --links --recursive --delete --compress --rsh=ssh
--progress --cvs-exclude'
DEST_DIR='foo@bar:/servers/monk'
# Synchronize the project's files
rsync ${OPTS} dist/lib/myLCI.jar ${DEST_DIR}
rsync ${OPTS} dist/lib/rvw.jar ${DEST_DIR}
rsync ${OPTS} dist/lib/CommonConfig.jar ${DEST_DIR}
rsync ${OPTS} dist/lib/MonkConfig.jar ${DEST_DIR}
rsync ${OPTS} doc ${DEST_DIR}
rsync ${OPTS} images ${DEST_DIR}
