Just in case someone is following this thread. I tried Unison, but I gave up before I got it to work. If you make one small typo, you have to start typing everything over again. You can't edit a synchronization profile. After trying 1/2 a dozen times from scratch, I gave up. But I found Grsync, which does all that my scripts do, but in a GUI. You have all the options in the GUI, nice pop-ups that tell what rsync option they correspond to (so you can read more about it in the rsync manual) and you can easily swap the synchronization directions. You can also test-drive your set of options (Simulation), as you should. -- Carlos FL Who is General Failure, and why is he reading my disk? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
