getting two directories to be the same

I am doing backups of a remote server by mounting the remote server using 
NFS.  I am now running into the same problem that I was having trying 
different ftp programs to mirror it.  The problem is deleting files on the 
backup server that are not on the remote server.  There is not ssh access 
to the remote server and the ftp daemon on the remote server sucks to say 
the least.  Anyway, I have the remote server NFS'd to the local (backup) 
server.  Is there an easy way to mirror the directory recursively from the 
nfs drive to the local drive?  I NEVER want to delete anything from the 
NFS'd drive.

Thanks
Steve
