I don't understand why the diff shenanigans. Rsync has that built-in, so you shouldn't need to be doing that as a separate step. If it is a file size limit, you could try to split(1) the file, then rsync the chunks. You might also try cygwin 1.7, which has improved the support for modern Windows OS dramatically. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list [email protected] http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
