hi, i've been coming up to speed on rsync+ssh, incremental backups, etc etc.
atm, all working great across *NIX boxes. but, i've recently been reminded that there are 'issues' with poor/failed backup of osx-files' metadata, w/ rsync & other tools: http://blog.plasticsfuture.org/2006/04/23/mac-backup-software-harmful/ http://blog.plasticsfuture.org/2006/03/05/the-state-of-backup-and-cloning-tools-under-mac-os-x/ and, with a little digging, found a patch that addresses (solves?) it for older (at the moment ...) versions of rsync: http://www.quesera.com/reynhout/misc/rsync+hfsmode/ question: does rsync @ v2.6.9, in fact, still have said issues? is there (will there be?) an official solution from the rsync team? thanks for your help. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
