Hello All, Myself Garvit Sharma working in hyderabad central university(HCU) at DCIS. I have started using rsync to sync the data and i found it very interesting. After using rsync a lot i realized to contribute to rsync by adding some extra features into it. Every time for synchronization we need to do it manually by executing command on the command line but instead of doing it manually imagine if it does automatically sync whenever it find changes in the single file. To do this we need to start a daemon on both the source and destination and these daemon will check the time stamp of last modification of the directory we want and if it finds the new time stamp then it will sync. The above mentioned idea is my own and i have already started reading and understanding the source of rsync. Please give your comments, your comments matters a lot for me. Thanks, -- Regards Garvit Sharma Computer Science and Engineering UG Third year LNM IIT, Jaipur *No Body is a Scholar by birth, its only hard work and strong determination that makes him master.* * * -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
