% hand, I have only 128 MBit upstream from my Win machine, and maybe you

%
% c:\mysql\bin> mysqldump --all-databases --add-drop-table > mysql -h
% myoffice -u username -p
%
% This will take some time, and it's most probably not the smartest thing

Ouch! You're mostly, or perhaps even only, dealing with simple text, so
why not take a moment to compress it before you send it over your tiny
drinking straw of a 'net pipeline...
mysqldump ... | gzip -9 | ssh myoffice gunzip | mysql -u username -p pass
Surely you have the cygwin toolkit and ssh for Win, right?

% HTH,
