No. Rsync is unidirectional. If you try to do it both ways, first, it's going to delete anything on hostb that isn't on hosta, then make all the files on hostb just like hosta. Then, if you try to go back the other way, all the changes on hostb are already gone. There is a product called "unison", which is made to do what you're asking about. I don't know more about it than that it exists. A quick google should get you to it. Good luck.

Raj <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 01/24/2002 09:21 AM To: Tim Conway/LMT/SC/PHILIPS@AMEC cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Rsync Classification: Tim, Currently I have rsync setup on hosta which syncs to hostb. Rsync deletes whatever deleted from hosta and copy and sync from hosta to hostb. Does rsync catch changes made and sync hosta in case any changes are made to hostb? Please let me know.
