How big is 4.3-RELEASE, please? 468 4.3-RELEASE/compat21 1360 4.3-RELEASE/compat3x 352 4.3-RELEASE/compat4x 10836 4.3-RELEASE/crypto 64536 4.3-RELEASE/src 1184 4.3-RELEASE/compat22 33524 4.3-RELEASE/bin 6496 4.3-RELEASE/manpages 5408 4.3-RELEASE/catpages 2488 4.3-RELEASE/games 2196 4.3-RELEASE/proflibs 1116 4.3-RELEASE/dict 2200 4.3-RELEASE/info 12508 4.3-RELEASE/doc 560 4.3-RELEASE/compat1x 360 4.3-RELEASE/compat20 7228 4.3-RELEASE/floppies 11988 4.3-RELEASE/ports 11920 4.3-RELEASE/XF86336/Servers 13372 4.3-RELEASE/XF86336/PC98-Servers 52768 4.3-RELEASE/XF86336 217752 4.3-RELEASE excluding packages and tools which i've symlinked.. > Rsync is on my today's TODO list.

Thanks. you can find a lot of help just looking at http://rsync.samba.org my quick how to setup is: get the rsync package - 2.4.6 is the latest unpack and compile it install it in your favourite location copy your favourite init script and modify it to start rsync as a daemon calling it as /path/to/rsync --daemon create a rsyncd.conf file in /etc which looks like: uid = ftp gid = ftp max connections = 10 transfer logging = yes log file = /server/rsync/logs/rsyncd.log log format = %o %h [%a] %m (%u) %f %l %b %c motd file = /server/rsync/etc/motd lock file = /var/run/rsyncd.lock pid file = /var/run/rsyncd.pid dont compress = * read only = true use chroot = true timeout = 600 [freebsd] path = /ftp/pub/freebsd comment = FreeBSD list = false if you want mirror sites to be able to connect/access via rsync (as opposed to power end users) i recommend you either password protect rsync or use access control (hosts allow = ) > At now, I have 5 % (speed ranges from 20 to 50 KB/s).
