copy directory structure to a system on the network

I am trying to write a script which has to copy the directory structure from my system to another system on the network. But I dont want the files to be copied.

I think I have to start with copying all subdirectories names in a directory to a system on the network.

Here's the case:

Source -System:

/folder1/folder2/XXXXX
/folder1/folder2/YYYYY
/folder1/folder2/ZZZZZ

(here XXXXX, YYYYY, ZZZZZ are sub directories which have files in them which we dont want to be copied)

Destination - System:

/tmp/folder2/XXXXX
/tmp/folder2/XXXXX
/tmp/folder2/XXXXX

(the directory names have to be the same from the previous system, but no files are to be transferred)


How do I go about to do this??

SYSTEMD-NETWORKD.SERVICE(8)                                  systemd-networkd.service                                  SYSTEMD-NETWORKD.SERVICE(8)

NAME
systemd-networkd.service, systemd-networkd - Network manager SYNOPSIS
systemd-networkd.service /lib/systemd/systemd-networkd DESCRIPTION
systemd-networkd is a system service that manages networks. It detects and configures network devices as they appear, as well as creating virtual network devices. To configure low-level link settings independently of networks, see systemd.link(5). systemd-networkd will create network devices based on the configuration in systemd.netdev(5) files, respecting the [Match] sections in those files. systemd-networkd will manage network addresses and routes for any link for which it finds a .network file with an appropriate [Match] section, see systemd.network(5). For those links, it will flush existing network addresses and routes when bringing up the device. Any links not matched by one of the .network files will be ignored. It is also possible to explicitly tell systemd-networkd to ignore a link by using Unmanaged=yes option, see systemd.network(5). When systemd-networkd exits, it generally leaves existing network devices and configuration intact. This makes it possible to transition from the initrams and to restart the service without breaking connectivity. This also means that when configuration is updated and systemd-networkd is restarted, netdev interfaces for which configuration was removed will not be dropped, and may need to be cleaned up manually. CONFIGURATION FILES
The configuration files are read from the files located in the system network directory /lib/systemd/network, the volatile runtime network directory /run/systemd/network and the local administration network directory /etc/systemd/network. Networks are configured in .network files, see systemd.network(5), and virtual network devices are configured in .netdev files, see systemd.netdev(5). SEE ALSO
