I would use tar. and then ftp over to the other box or rcp if you have that capability.
tar -cfv home.tar /home You will also have to copy the user portion of the /etc/passwd file and the group file if you have any usual group GIDs. Also, make sure that you have no conflict with duplicate UIDs on the new host. Here is a link that talks about these changes. command Just make sure you do all these things and you should be fine. I may have forgotten 1 or 2 small things but just try to port over any related config files like /etc/profile etc...
