Hum i cannot directly use the FS i have no access to the NFS server that is on the hosting company side i just have access to the webserver that use the nfs partition to store it's content. Right now i also mount the nfs share on the backup server so that way i have not the overhead of ssh in the mix (but yes i am on a 1000mbps lan for the NFS and backup server). for my understanding rsync had allways seems to be the most efficient of the two but i never challenged this "fact" ;p i will have a look at tar and see if i can work with it . If any other person has some experience in it feel free to contribute :) regards, Jean. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn Windows Azure Live!
