You had, perhaps optionally, a list of directories (andor files) and the utility copied only changed files from machine A to :B? I use ssh, and have a pretty good firewall set up on my DNS server. Just wondering if some of this isn't overkill... and trying to remember the utility. Was it rsync after all? gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public service Unix
