So how would this work? The server sends all the files to the client, the
client figures out whether it needs the file, and if so, the server sends
it again?

Hello
[I am not on this mailing list, please use CC:, Thanks]
On the debian mailing list, we have a discussion about rsync.
See
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2002/debian-devel-200204/msg00700.html
and replys. Maybe this mail
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2001/debian-devel-200111/msg00757.html
is also interestingly.
Have rsync a Option to switch the calculation of the block checksums to
the server and move the real work to the client?
I have shown in the source code and found a unused(?) Option '--sender'.
Can you explain this option?
Thanks

We can use rsync on the client site. -> get a rsync-checksum file (use a fix block size) -> make the check on the client site and -> download the file partly per ftp/http -> make the new file with the old and downloaded parts Read this mail from goswin: http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2001/debian-devel-200111/msg00757.html Gruss Grisu -- Michael Bramer - a Debian Linux Developer http://www.debsupport.de PGP: finger grisu@db.debian.org -- Linux Sysadmin -- Use Debian Linux "Ein "Newbee" der lesen kann ist klar im Vorteil;) " -- Steffen Martin <smartin@gmx.de> -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Option '--sender'. > Can you explain this option?I read the followup discussion to your question quite late, so that's why I didn't reply sooner, but I don't believe anybody ever answered your question about "--sender". That is not an unused option, it is just an undocumented internal option. It is passed from client to server to tell the server that it is to send files to the client. - Dave Dykstra
