I use rdist daily. It's in 4.7/src, but thrown out of 5/src into ports/net/44bsd-rdist , alonside rdist6; (Thrown out 'cos of security holes apparently, discussed on current@ long ago). I've used rdist to update a Gig or 2 between hosts. Rdist is more widely found on Unixes, but rsync maybe newer/ nicer.
