how to get mirror to send a local dir to a remote locn?

[brannon@bufo.usc.edu (Terrence M. Brannon)]

I placed the following in /etc/mirror/packages/bufo.usc.edu and called
it with mirror. It did a wonderful job of pulling things from the
remote site to the local site but wouldnt take the SwarmGenesis
directory and mirror it to the remote machine. How can I do this
 
package=swarm-genesis
site=bufo.usc.edu
local_dir=/root/SWARM/SwarmGenesis
remote_dir=/home/hyla-01/brannon/backup/ipsalu
remote_user=brannon
remote_password=Dong.jia.fu
recursive=true
remote_fs=unix
compress_prog=gzip
mail_to=root@ipsalu,brannon@bufo
verbose=true
