I want machine2.mydomain.com to receive the updates 2-4 times per day. The directories to sync up would be /usr/* and some user directories. What are the best ways of doing this? I've already used nfs mounting from cron and then a script which does the back (actually the script does the mounting and the backup) but it seems terribly slow for 10Base-T. ...any suggestions welcomed. Thanx in advance, Randy Katz
