RE: rsync backup

2004-01-16 Thread Hergaarden, Marcel
I've setup SSH for auto login. It seems I can just do rsync -e ssh -aupg 10.10.10.24:/home/MYDOMAIN /home fine Do I still need /etc/rsyncd.conf on the server? Nope. I do the same thing, and I've never needed it. As far as I know you should only have the rsync binary installed. When you

Any (known) scaling issues?

2004-01-16 Thread Bret Foreman
