rsync 2.4.7pre4 now includes IPv6 support based on the KAME.net patch, plus code from other groups including ISC, OpenBSD and the OpenSSH portability team. Thankyou to everybody who has helped with this.
rsync source is available from http://samba.org/ftp/rsync/preview/ ftp://samba.org/pub/rsync/preview/ rsync://samba.org/rsyncftp/preview/ We would appreciate hearing about success or failure using this package, particularly with IPv6 or on older or unusual platforms. -- Martin
