Well, dunno, really - I didn't cvsup my ports and tried to build it, since I'm currently on site at a client where I can only get HTTP access. I only read about it on the ports mailing list - looks like some GNU automake fubar to me, wouldn't come too surprising. I suggest you take the good advice from Chuck and stick with rsync, which of course *does* synchronize directories and symlinks as well (and is a very popular solution for such things). Simply use rsync's archive mode (see manpage and Chuck's posting, -a), which implies -r for recursion. Cheers, Jan
