Thanks a lot for your suggestions! Franco and Shane - I will definitely check cpdup out. Georges suggestion is neat, sadly for this usage pattern zfs isn't ideal - lack of memory, files are transferred between freebsd and linux etc. but it's definitely something I'll have to remember for the future. Greg, I've actually put some thought in making a local port of rsync2. I've done some research on it and it seems to be fairly usable and security patched still. -Reko -----Original Message----- > One of my users is needing rsync like functionality to transfer changed > contents of some directories between couple of machines.
