I'm working on an rdist setup that will mirror a directory on two 4.0-RELEASE machines. Here's a simple example of the the distfile I'm using: HOSTS = ( me@other.host ) FILES = ( /home/me/example/file1 /home/me/example/temp/* ) ${FILES} -> ${HOSTS} install -R ; According to the man page, using the -R switch will cause rdist to delete any files that are on other.host that are not on the current host that rdist is being run from. However, the extra files are not being deleted. I'm assuming this has something to do with my setup here, and was hoping someone could point out what it was, or confirm that it is a bug and I'll simply have to delete the extra files by hand. Thanks for your help. -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Drew Sanford Email: lauasanf@bellsouth.net ICQ: 8690555 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= "My mother said to me, if you become a soldier, you'll be a general, if you become a monk, you'll end up as the pope.
