Dependent on the table structure, you could also use a utility to
dump to flat files and load with sql loader.
The advantage is the speed of sqlldr over imp.
Whether exp/imp or sqlldr, you should be able to dump the data to a socket and read it simultaneously on the target system, with no need to create permanent files. (This is one thing you cannot do on Win32)
