If you are using a new enough kernel, I highly recommend sshfs, which is
a FUSE filesystem that uses ssh.  You can mount a subtree of a remote
filesystem and then access it with the same permissions as if you were
using an ssh session (which you are).  Also the mount can be done by a
regular user; root privileges (or predefined entries in fstab) are not
necessary.
