Thanks, Paul. I daily use rsync in my dirvish backups but had the apparently incorrect impression that it synchronized files in two locations by updating only the older one with the newer one. I suppose that's because I've used jpilot for many years to syncrhonize my Palm Pilots/Treos with the desktop and that's a two-way process. > http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~bcpierce/unison/ Will do.
