That's why you should use the '-W' option with rsync. It says don't use the magic rsync algorithm. I think rsync is great but in cases when you have only new files or files that change completely, the rsync algorithm doesn't do anything for you that I can see. -- Jon Forrest Research Computing Support College of Chemistry 173 Tan Hall University of California Berkeley Berkeley, CA 94720-1460 510-643-1032 jlforr...@berkeley.edu ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
