Nice. I even learned a few things from it myself. :)
A couple comments:
Under mirroring, you say
Once you have the rsync client installed on your system and the
disk space mapped out, you may then add an entry to your crontab [
if using UNIX, AT if using Windows NT ] like the following example:
20 * * * /usr/local/bin/rsync -av ftp.funet.fi::CPAN
/project/CPAN/ >/dev/null 2>&1
This (obviously) isn't the syntax for an AT command (on NT), it would be
AT 20:00 /every:M,T,W,Th,F,S,Su "C:\Program Files\Rsync\rsync
-av ftp.funet.fi::CPAN /project/CPAN/ >/dev/null 2>&1"
Under "How do I install Perl modules", I believe PPM is not available for
Solaris and Linux/x86. Can someone verify this?
Excellent job, Elaine.
