Hi hanj, maybe this rsync option might help you?
--checksum from the man page: "This changes the way rsync checks if the files have been changed and are in need of a transfer. Without this option, rsync uses a "quick check" that (by default) checks if each file's size and time of last modification match between the sender and receiver. This option changes this to compare a 128-bit MD4 checksum for each file that has a matching size. Generating the checksums means that both sides will expend a lot of disk I/O reading all the data in the files in the transfer (and this is prior to any reading that will be done to transfer changed files), so this can slow things down significantly." Don't know how this will behave in combination with CurlFtpFs. Regards, Dirk hanj schrieb: > Hello All > > I have a non-standard question about dirvish.
