Actually, I just did a test, using iptables to count bytes between the two hosts, and then renamed a 33M file. backuppc, using rsync, only transferred 370k. Hence I think that it actually does *not* transfer the whole file. (btw, I also think that what I wrote in http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.sysutils.backup.backuppc.general/24352 is wrong, but I shall follow up on this when I have verified my findings). -- martin | http://madduck.net/ | http://two.sentenc.es/ beauty, brains, availability, personality; pick any two. spamtraps: madduck.bo...@madduck.net
