Uploading documents to Sharepoint using webservices

Question

I would like to get documents from documents library and upload them using webservices.
Files can be big.
I have few questions:
- which webservice and methods should I use?
- does it support soap attachements (file could be big)
- what about authentication to sharepoint - should I invoke some other webservice or not? From java ?
- can I use these webservices from java?
