Question Compare folder contents over network
I use diff -r dir1 dir2 to get comparison of two folders that are on same machine.
Now I need the same thing but one of the folders is on a different machine.
Currently I ftp the folder to a temp folder compare using above command and delete the temp folder.
Is there any other better options?
Any command or utility which I can use over network to directly compare?

Thanks in advance
