Thanks!
you probably do not want rsync, but cvsup (which in fact uses rsync's algorithm for binary files) that handles cvs repositories efficiently. lemme fecth the url for you... http://people.freebsd.org/~jdp/s1g/ or http://ftp.webmonster.de/jdp/s1g/ it is in the ports tree of most bsd dists, binaries available from above urls. at the moment i prefer cvsup over rsync also for mirroring binary files, because the cvsup daemon does not have any code in it that writes to files, you can easily configure it to run as cvsupd or nobody user, and it appears to be much faster for large collections of files because filelist generation, diff checking and actual copying of the data is done in a multiplexed, parallel and isochronous fashion. cheers, /k > > -- > Sincerely, > Erin Meunier -- > Large cats can be dangerous, but a little pussy never hurt anyone.
