It depends.
If the remote is the same OS (same libraries and such), then just copy
it over.  It will work.
If it's *similar* (like, compiled for RedHat8, copied to RedHat9) it
very well might work.
If it's very close (SuSE 8.1 copied to SuSE 8.2) it SHOULD work.
You generally don't want to copy "down" (like compile on RH9, copy to
RH8) but copying "up" is usually okay.
If they're not even kind of the same (Compiled on Mandrake 9.2, copied
to Solaris 9) there's no chance in hell.
