Prevent infinite recursion in rwrite()

2002-05-06 Thread Wayne Davison
Here's a resend of an old patch that is intended to avoid an infinite recursion (ending in a stack overflow) of the rwrite() function getting an error that calls rwrite(), ad naseum. I've only seen this happen when one of the sides dies due to a program error -- in that case, the connection is cl

Re: rsync as a backup solution

I'd suggest you proceed with caution. I had implemented rsync as a backup solution until I found out that it dies if you try to backup files that get moved. (So if a user moves/deletes a file while your backup is running, it'll fail.) It is, however, great for static files. > I would like to ge
