I'm curious about this, too. We're using rsync on www.ca.freebsd.org, and that's what I tried first for ww3.ca, however the current rsync in the ports tree doesn't seem to work the same way. On www.ca we're running 'rsync --client -avz ...', but the current rsync (from ports) doesn't recognize --client. I haven't had time to dig in and see what's changed. --lyndon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hubs" in the body of the message
