Why don't you just do fulls more often? With rsync they don't transfer any more data than an incremental and they always become the comparison for the next run. The only real difference is that it reads everything on the target system, but over a WAN that won't make it much slower. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
