Rsync can either run via ssh or as a server. We generally use it in server mode to do things like update secondary name server's tinydns data files, restricting access to specific secondary directories based on IP address. Doing it that way as opposed to using ssh eliminates some of the authentication hassles, and the DNS data isn't sensitive. This is also a very good way of publishing web sites from a master server. >begin Bill Campbell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >(Mon, 23 Dec 2002 10:14:45 -0800) > >> Assuming that the remote site has rsync set up to run as a >> server, then rsync allows all of the above, probably more >> efficiently when mirroring sites. > > >-- >Matthew Carpenter >[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.eisgr.com/ > >Enterprise Information Systems >*Network Consulting, Integration & Support >*Web Development and E-Business >_______________________________________________ >Linux-users mailing list >[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users > -- Bill -- INTERNET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Bill Campbell; Celestial Software LLC UUCP: camco!bill PO Box 820; 6641 E.
