Hello,
Something very much resembling a graphical win32-based front-end for rsync
is available at http://sync2nas.sourceforge.net It is released under the
BSD license for all to enjoy.
A few caveats:
* It reportedly only works on WinNT/Win2K. Win9x is being looked into at
this time.
* It is written in Perl/Tk, although all portability conceits were
abandoned fairly early on, and it currently makes quite a few
assumptions that only make sense under win32. It was subsequently
turned into a win32 executable through the magic of ActiveState tools.
* It is bundled with rsync 2.4.6 and a cygwin1.dll, which can be replaced
with newer versions at whim.
* It is currently only capable of uploading files, which is all we need
it to do.
* Anonymous rsync is not supported, nor is rsh/ssh. This should change
soon.
* It's not what one would call "classically beautiful", =) and it's
undoubtedly got a few bugs..
It is still being worked on, but it seems to have just enough features at
this point that other people might want to start hearing about it. If
anyone is interested, please come and try it out.
