Ken, Errr....Perl
Had a quick look at this, it seems to be a perl-based client to talk to a remote rsync daemon (presumably running on a Linux box). I'll keep looking though. "File::RsyncP does not yet implement server functionality (acting like the remote end of a connection or a daemon). Since the protocol is relatively symmetric this is not difficult to add, so it should appear in a future version."

We are looking at synchronising large amounts of data each night, including some 200+gb databases. Rsync seems to handle this situation a lot nicer than robocopy (which we use now), as it only copies block level changes to the file (robocopy does the whole thing again). I have looked at installing rsync using the Cygwin method, but it seems a bit clunky for my liking.
