If you like to migrate your ftp tree to rsync without re-fetching 
everything, you can do it like the advices in

  http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/people/emoenke/rsync.suse_update

First step: tell rsync "-vv --dry-run" to let him tell what he would do.
Just to follow Lenin - "Vertrauen ist gut, Kontrolle ist besser".

Second step: tell rsync "-vv --size-only --existing" to let him verify
your contents with help of MD5 sums and correct the naturally crippled ftp 
time stamps.

Third step: do a "regular" rsync.


Cheers -e
