There are a number of good, open-source rsync GUI's available as well. Makes it pretty easy to batch tasks that a user can employ at a click. I have used one on OS X called arRsync, if I recall. A casual google search reveals a number of GUIs for Windows as well. /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
