My problem is still that rsyncP with rsyncd as client still retransmits unchanged files. I reduced the testcase: 1) Full Backup. All files are transmitted, This is the logoutput from the client: 2009/10/22 21:35:44 [3820] connect from UNKNOWN (192.168.5.9) 2009/10/22 21:35:55 [3820] rsync on .

2007-02-15 Thread Bernhard Ott
