From what I understand, doesn't the -a option mean to archive? Yes, in the sence that file permissions are transfered aswell, so the destination files are exact the same as the source files. It doesn't mean that the files are being zip, rar, gzip packed or anything like that. We don't want to

Rsync 2.6.4 released

2005-03-30 Thread Wayne Davison
I have released rsync 2.6.4. This version has quite a few enhancements over 2.6.3, some optimizations in the delete handling, and the usual collection of bug fixes. I'd like to say thanks to everyone who downloaded and tested one of the pre-release versions -- the feedback was very helpful! A

I'll check out all the options and do some testing, and let you know my results. If you use the --dry-run, rsync will act exactly like a back up is being done, but no data is transfered or altered in anyway. So you can try all sorts of crazy things without risking data =) Try also the

files' timestamp handling - bug or design decision?

2005-03-30 Thread Eugene Kramer
Hello, A few days ago I posted a question about handling timestamps in rsync (Q: rsync - preserve timestamps, but not use it to define files to update), but did not get a single response, so I thought I'd rephrase it. Also, with a new release of rsync out, may be there is some more time that

Yes, We would want to overwrite the older file on the IBM server, to match the updated version on the G4. This is possible, but I haven't tried that. I guess I mis-understood the -a option :) Sort of=) Does rsync need to be installed on both servers to work? I don't know what is the best way,
