Hi Matthias, that's a good idea.
I was only thinking on rsync+ssh, and rsyncd also exists.
For information, I tried to rsync the complete root folder. And it took
hours only to generate the file list to transfer.
This is why I had to use a find command to divide to file tree in
smaller ones to be faster to backup.
I will try your solution and reply to the list to inform about the results.
Thanks.
