using (say) rsync tunneling through ssh?  It looks (from the man pages) like

e.g., updating from the remote server,

rsync -a --rsh=ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]:remote/path/ local/path

If you run this unattended, you should set up your ssh keys to allow this remote connection without password (or passphrase).
