Hi, Since this thread was originally related to file mirroring, let me introduce a file synchronizing software here. I have been looking for a s/w to synchronizing and backing up files for a long time. Two of them I knew were 'Unison' and 'Synkron'. Unfortunately, neither is easy to use.
Then I found Conduit [ http://www.conduit-project.org/ ]. It is the most user friendly sync program I have seen to date. Furthermore, it doesn't do just file/folder sync - it can do syncing of media (youtube etc), tomboy/gnote notes, photos (picasa, f-spot, smug-mug, flickr, facebook etc), office files (open office, google docs ), RSS feed, gconf settings etc. It can do one way or two way syncs, multiple source syncs, etc. Its interface is intuitive and easy to use as well (has a CLI as well). The project is still in infancy, but shows great potential. I just hope it survives the initial phase. Please do try this out if you are looking for syncing options. @Shyam chettan: During an installfest (2nd Dishaa), a gentleman from ISRO asked me about sync software in Gnu/Linux. At the time I knew only Unison -so I recommended it. But the project is inactive. Anyway, he has your contact details (just FYI).
