Before you trust this always-up-to-date, try it on some relatively large files. I suspect you get some nasty surprises. The basic problem is that Windows writes the directory entry and then sometime later writes the file contents.
If you only rsync files that are say at least 10 minutes Old, you will probably get the correct contents. Chances are high that you notice the problem on shared files. Chances are high that the problem exists on all the files. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of syncro > Sent: Friday, March 16, 2007 3:31 AM > To: rsync@lists.samba.org > Subject: RE: Problem with shared xls file.
