ZFS's send/recv capability (over a network) is something I didn't have
time to experiment with, but it looked *very* promising. The method is
documented in the manpage as "Example 12", and is very simple -- as it
should be. You don't have to use SSH either, by the way[1].
The examples do list ssh as the way of initiating the receiving end; I
am curious as to what the alterative would be (short of installing
openssh-portable and using cipher=no).
rsh or netcat come to mind. I haven't tried using either though.
I wouldn't recommend either for the obvious reasons: weak or no
authentication and integrity protection. Even if the former is not a
concern for some reason then the latter should be (your data stream
could be corrupted in transit and you'd never know until you tried to
verify or restore the backup).
