Adam, that's essentially what I am leaning toward except that I would use the QRYIFSLIB to derive the directory structure. This is an IBM-supplied wrapper for QSH and is part of IFSTOOLS.

You said in another post that you had a large number of files. Depending on the file types, you may save a fair amount of time and bandwidth at the cost of CPU cycles if you transfer one encrypted archive instead of individually transferring the files one directory at a time.

Since you said the target is a Windows machine, you may prefer jar to tar+gzip, as I believe jar can create ZIP archives. AFAIK, Windows handles ZIPs easily, but tarballs not so much.
