Check out the php class SOAP_Attachment which is part of PEAR/SOAP/Value.php Create an instnce of that - provide the filename you want to send and then do what you want to do with the MIME attachment. Problems with big files would probably be the timeouts from connections and PHP scripts - you'd need to set them high, or better still break the zip file in to smaller files and fix it back up at the other end.
