I've tested rsync and rdiff-backup (http://www.nongnu.org/rdiff-backup/) and rdiff-backup seems to be more responsive, and seems to begin to write before rsync... anyone here with experience with rdiff-backup? I think that (except being -maybe- less time consuming) it's like rsync (good & bads included) And thanks for your reply, Ermanno ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
