BTW, if you want to run dirvish on a Mac, push versus pull isn't
the major problem.  OS-X Mac runs the UFS+ file sustem, which
contains metadata and resource forks that a Linux/BSD/Solaris file
system does not easily accomodate.  Moving that metadata requires
a special version of rsync at the Mac end, with some special
command line options.  At the receiving end, the rsync process
may need to run in --checksum mode,

Or you can do what I've had to do in the past... Mount the Linux disk space on the mac using the AFP (netatalk) then do a local/local rsync from the mac drive to the AFP mounted directory on the dirvish server.

And yes..there is a patched rsync for mac that is a bit more friendly (error resistant) than what Apple provides..
